Anthurium regale

From: "Alan Galloway" alan_galloway at bellsouth.net> on 2003.01.17 at 21:23:10(9846) Folks, I was asked to post this message to aroid-l, Alan +More -- Anthurium regale (Linden) This remarkable species was introduced into horticulture in 1866. In the recent IAS beauty contest for Anthuriums, this handsome species only received 4% of the vote. We suspect that its rarity in collections is the reason it got so few votes. An online picute of this aroid can be seen at: http://www4.ncsu.edu/~alan/plants/aroids/anthurium/1.html This grand specimen was grown by Dr. Darian of Vista, California. The species is native to Peru and has been collected by Dr. Plowman and Dr. Croat in the past. Its demanding cultural requirements are a testament to Dr. Darian's horticultural achievements.

I can not find adequate words to describe this truly magnificent Anthurium species, one that I did not even know existed! Tghe only Aroid that can remember that so impressed me was a species of Alocasia that Reggie Whitehead showed at a Miami Aroid show three years or so back! I would ask that we try to find out the difficulties hinted at in growing this treasure! Thanks again!

From: "Julius Boos" ju-bo at msn.com> on 2003.01.20 at 00:37:03(9859) Dear Alan, On checking the habitat/distribution of this magnificent plant, it is reported that it occurs at relatively low altitudes +-1,000--2,000 ft. in Peruvian Rain Forest.

From: "Julius Boos" ju-bo at msn.com> on 2003.01.29 at 10:29:34(9896) Dear Tom, Thanks for this positive I.D. to a wonderful Anthurium species that has intrigued many of us for many years! I first saw this HUGE plant (then called Anthurium 'xanthosomafolia') in the late Dr. Monroe Birdsey`s collection, in fact we examined this same plant and discussed it on several occasions while visiting Monroe, then at one of the IAG show and sales quite a few years ago my friend Dave Deloach had an almost-adult specmen of this stolen from out of the main hall during the day! We never did figure out how the thief got it away from the table and out of the room, though not fully grown to adult size, it was a BIG plant, perhaps 3' tall by 4 1/2' wide!! Then we discussed this same species of Anthurium on the aroid-L a while ago when we were debating which aroid and plant had the largest leaf (a palm was the winner!). For those who may not have seen this amazing plant, it has short petioles, is very compact-growing, has many huge, all-green rounded-cordate-shaped almost bullate leaves with a thick texture like dry cardboard! It is said to occur naturally in dry, rocky areas of Mexico (Tom??) Anyone w/ LOTS of greenhouse space or a Botanical Garden-like setting should own one of these. We are fortunate that one of our members, Dewey Fisk, [araceae@earthlink.net ] sometimes has seed or seedlings for sale, he managed to get his parent plants from Dr. Birdsey before sadly Monroe passed away! If anyone is interested, drop him a line PRIVATELY and he may be able to assist you in obtaining one of these beauties!

It is growing well in the botanical garden in Tuxtla Guttierez where I first realized what it was and where it was from because I was told that Miranda had collected it in Chiapas and that it had been there in the Garden for years.

I've got one now. It measures 20cm (8 inches) and just began to unfurl this morning. I have no idea whether this will pollinate without help but have a message out to Dr. Croat. Any information anyone has would be appreciated. I'm documenting the growth of the spathe and spadix on the website. Thanks for any help!
