Observations from the Field
15th October 1889. Anthurium hookeri presents a very different aspect. It is a birdsnest type, forming a tight rosette of stiff, coriaceous leaves designed to capture falling forest debris. The leaf margins are slightly wavy, and the surface lacks any velvet sheen, being glossy green instead. Prices are stable and accessible, making it a robust addition for those who lack the space or humifying apparatus for delicate species.
