Seed parent: Anthurium (papillilaminum 'Red Abaxial' hybrid) 'Dropbear'
From a batch that was sold as papillilaminum 'Red Abaxial' x self. Was obviously contaminated, however the plant is now one of my favourites. Gorgeous maroon emergents that harden off to big round pillowy leaves with red abaxial veins & deep colour.

Pollen parent: Anthurium NOID 'Jayda'
Lost tag hybrid created by John & Aida. Absolutely gorgeous spidery veins & strong red features. Stunning emergents with hot pink veins.

The goal
After seeing some of the other Dropbear hybrids I've made, many of them have red & purple abaxial veins & incredibly dark leaf colour. I'm hoping that pairing it with a plant with incredible adaxial vein colouring like Jayda, atleast some of the offspring will keep the deep colour & pillowy texture of the seed parent, but with improved colour from the pollen parent.

Given that both the parents are complex hybrids, I can't guarantee what the offspring will look like, but that's part of the fun & the reason why I love complex mixes so much.

Received 6 instead of 4 all healthy and germinated, not a bad word to say sbout the seeds nor the plants. James is amazing and is always willing to help if theres shy concerns with how to properly take care of your new babies. I'll forever choose the plant plug for my anthurium needs, the kindness, generosity and humble energy Jame exudes is top tier. Youll never regret a buy from him, he deserves all the hype he gets and more. <3
