Look what we have here! My beloved Anthurium Clarinervium is truly putting on a show right now. Not only is it currently in its fascinating female stage of bloom – for those of you who love a bit of plant science, this means the spadix is now receptive to pollen, displaying those beautiful, dewy stigmas – but it’s also unfurling a brand new leaf!

It’s truly a sight to behold, witnessing the delicate, almost glowing inflorescence alongside the promise of that tightly curled, emerging foliage. 

Those velvety, heart-shaped leaves provide the perfect backdrop to this intricate dance of nature, and seeing both new growth and a bloom simultaneously is always a joy. 

I’d love to play matchmaker with a little brush for the bloom, too bad all my anthuriums are juvenile, seedlings or seeds.
