ABSTRACT:

I obtained A. araliifolium from the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in 1978 (Fig. 1, a.,b.). Since this Anthurium is seldom encountered in collections and certainly has horticultural merit (at least for aroid collectors), my thoughts turned to propagation. When I obtained A. araliifolium, three spadices were developing and I decided to self pollinate the flowers in order to have many seeds of this fine plant.
