🌿 Anthurium 'Rotundatum X' × Self – Stabilized Line Selection
This self-cross of Anthurium 'Rotundatum X' is intended to reinforce and stabilize the desirable trilobed morphology, strong venation, and compact growth habit of this rare hybrid. By selfing, we aim to refine uniformity in leaf structure, increase genetic consistency, and preserve the bold characteristics that make 'Rotundatum X' a standout cultivar in hybridization efforts.
Parentage & Lineage:
🧬 Anthurium 'Rotundatum X' (Selfed Line Selection)
Recognized for its broad, rounded trilobed leaves and strong central sinus
Displays a semi-velvety texture with deep emerald hues and high-contrast venation
In selfing, seedlings may express enhanced stability in lobing, leaf proportion, and increased vigor
Morphological Characteristics:
🍃 Leaf Structure:
Consistently trilobed with a broad, shield-like form
Expected to retain the strong midrib definition and high-contrast venation of the original 'Rotundatum X'
🎨 Coloration & Venation:
Emergent leaves may appear in bronze or muted green, later maturing to deep emerald with structured venation contrast
Variability in glossy or semi-velvety textures may emerge based on environmental conditions
📏 Growth Habit:
Compact, upright structure with a potential for shortened internodal spacing
Benefits from moss pole support, promoting strong leaf development and controlled elongation
Cultivation & Care Requirements:
☀️ Light Exposure: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain deep pigmentation and structural integrity
💧 Irrigation: Requires a well-draining, organic-rich substrate; allow the topsoil to slightly dry between waterings
🌡 Environmental Conditions: Thrives in high humidity (70-80%), warm temperatures (65-80°F / 18-27°C), and consistent airflow
🪴 Propagation: Seed-grown, ensuring greater uniformity in leaf structure and vigor
Defining Features from Parentage:
✅ Stabilization of trilobed, structured leaf form
✅ Preservation of strong midrib structure and defined venation
✅ Compact, manageable growth habit ideal for collectors
Ideal Applications:
A refined, selfed selection, perfect for botanical conservatories, rare aroid collections, and enthusiasts seeking a sculptural Anthurium with increased consistency in form and growth habit.
