2. Anthurium Veitchii

Second place for the King Anthurium, the Anthurium Veitchii. This species also deserved its royal reference, by being almost too pretty to be real! Luckily the King Anthurium is more than real and will shine with glossy leaves that can become quite impressive in size. These leaves have a ribbed texture, which adds to the elegance of this plant.

3. Anthurium Crystallinum x Luxurians

A hybrid couldn’t be missed from this list! This is a hybrid cross between 2 highly wanted Anthurium species, let alone if they make a love baby. The Anthurium Crystallinum x Luxurians has all the characteristics that we know and love the ‘parents’ for. The structure is captivating and is so pretty in combination with that heart-shaped leaf! And the fun thing is, that these hybrids vary from each other. Kind of like siblings can vary, that is what makes this beauty just a little bit extra special!

6. Anthurium King of Spades

This hybrid cross has unknown parents but doesn’t that mystery make this species even more appealing? The Anthurium King of Spades has big leaves that are almost black, so deep green is the colour. This rich colour is highlighted with some white veins, which adds to the grace of this plant. No wonder why so many plant lovers have this beauty on their wishlist!

7. Anthurium Silver Blush Mint

The Anthurium Silver Blush was already a beloved Anthurium species, but now there is the Silver Blush in a Mint-coloured jacket. If you like the glittery looks, this version will be your new favourite! The foliage has this frosted look over it, including the glistering you will see when the sun hits it, stunning ain’t it?

8. Anthurium Wendlingeri

With long and narrow leaves, falling down from its pot, the Anthurium Wendlingeri already knows how to radiate this whimsical feeling. But when you know that it can produce flowers that also hang the same way, it’s just that little bit of extra spark that we love this Anthurium species for. Oh, and the allure doesn’t stop there! These flowers can be spiral-shaped, making them look unusual and really captivating. Sounds like a cool addition to your plant collection, doesn’t it?

Being as stunning as its family members, this beauty could not have missed its spot on our most wanted list!
