Anthurium veitchii (species)
Mature Anthurium veitchii (Species) Wide Form
This impressive Anthurium veitchii has survived a devastating tornado on the Gold Coast and cyclone Alfred. As I prepared to lower the 600mm pot, I noticed that one of the inflorescences had undergone a successful pollination. The spadix has turned a deeper green, and distinct bumps are beginning to form as the seeds (or berries) develop. Over the coming weeks to months, the swelling will continue as the infructescence matures and the berries ripen.
