PapX x X-one variegated

A variegated specimen of a hybrid between a pap X and pap X-one from Karteldaun (Indonesia). The leaves usually harden off to a solid color, which likely means that the variegation is on one layer of the leaf.

carlaX

This plant originates from a quite well-known batch that was initially believed to be pure Anthurium carlablackiae, but later proved to be an unintended bench hybrid between NSE carlablackiae and an unknown pollen donor, produced by Enid Offolter (USA, @nsetropicals). The most commonly speculated pollen donors are A. portillae and A. papillilaminum.

The plant exhibits a striking deep red emergent leaf color, delicate spidery venation, and a slightly elongated, triangular leaf shape. It has become a cornerstone in my breeding program, consistently passing on exceptionally dark foliage and richly colored emergents. Offspring also frequently inherit the fine pin-striping and spidery veins.

About this cross

Nice dark plants with minimal venation from carlaX. I got a lot of minty seedlings from this cross, and then there's the keeper Wolt, which has these super metallic emergents combined with a very dark leaf. The metallic colors are so vivid they remind me of electricity, which is where the name comes from. I've also seen a really awesome wide-sinus one posted on Instagram from this cross.
