🌿 Cultivation & Care Information

• Botanical Name: Anthurium 'King of Spades' Hybrid (Variegated)

• Common Name: Variegated King of Spades / KOS Hybrid Variegata / King of Spades Aureum

• Plant Type: Wide-spade, terrestrial-epiphytic dark velvet tropical aroid

• Sun Requirements: Bright, indirect filtered light (Essential: Requires high-intensity, dappled light to sustain the complex variegation and deep, near-black velvet tone. Avoid any direct, harsh midday sun, which can permanently scorch the delicate, low-chlorophyll variegated sectors).

• Soil / Medium: Thrives exclusively in an ultra-chunky, premium, highly aerated potting medium consisting of coarse orchid bark, perlite, pumice, horticultural charcoal, sphagnum moss, and rich organic worm castings (ideal pH 5.5–6.5).

• Watering: Water thoroughly only when the top 1–2 inches of the chunky medium have completely dried out. Never allow the roots to sit in stagnant water, as mature velvet Anthuriums are highly sensitive to root asphyxiation.

• Growth Habit: A compact-to-moderate growing, highly structural clumping aroid. Produces short, thick petioles that support broad, overlapping spade-shaped leaves with an incredible light-absorbing velvet finish.

• Temperature & Humidity: Thrives effortlessly in warm, highly humid environments. Maintain ambient temperatures strictly between 20°C–28°C and keep humidity levels between 70%–85% to ensure pristine, tear-free leaf expansion.

💡 Pro Growing Tip: Because dark velvet Anthuriums absorb a significant portion of their moisture and nutrients from the air, they respond spectacularly to high humidity coupled with gentle, continuous air circulation. To maximize leaf size and maintain the pristine, unblemished beauty of the variegated sectors, place a specialized humidifier nearby and ensure the plant is never positioned near dry drafts or direct heating vents. When watering, use lukewarm distilled water or rainwater to prevent mineral salt buildup on the roots, which can cause the delicate, velvety margins of the leaves to crisp.
