Anthurium Seeds - Wild Crystallinum X 'Black Sensation' x

 

The plant pictured in the product images are the parent plants of these seeds. Seed parent is a Wild Crystallinum and pollen parents is a 'Black Sensation' x (probably with Magniaficum). 

Seeds can be purchased its lots of 5 or 10. 

Seeds will arrive germinating inside moist paper towel. Once received, you will need to remove them from the paper towel and plant them into a medium of your choice. You may need to wet the paper towel to aid in carefully prying the roots from the paper towel without damaging them.

Most prefer to plant Anthurium seeds in sphagnum moss, and then move them into a well-draining Anthurium soil mix when they are a good size (have ~3-4 leaves). This works well but we personally prefer to use vermiculite to grow our Anthurium seeds, and then perlite thereafter. 

It’s important that the seeds are given very high humidity and warm temperatures for them to grow well. Growing them in clear plastic take-away food containers works well, as leaving the lid on will lock in the humidity. They can also be grown inside mini plastic greenhouses, storage containers, or even glass jars. If ambient temperatures fall below 20 C, it's best to place the container with germinating seeds on a heat mat.

Once the seeds produce their first leaf, you can add ventilation to their growing container by opening the lid a tiny bit or punching a few small holes into it (you still want to keep their environment fairly humid). Adding ventilation to the container will cause the growing medium to eventually dry out, giving you the opportunity to give your seedlings a very weak feed. We use GT complete focus diluted to approximately 2 ml per litre for our Anthurium seedlings. Once the plants have at least 3 – 4 leaves, you can move them into your regular growing environment with at least 60% humidity.
