Anthurium King of Spades Red, best described botanically as Anthurium hybrid ‘King of Spades Red’, is a striking rare aroid admired for its dramatic dark foliage and bold red-toned new growth. This collector-focused Anthurium brings together a powerful leaf shape, rich coloration, and a premium tropical presence that makes it a standout addition to any rare plant collection.

Plant Characteristics

This rare Anthurium is known for its broad, spade-shaped leaves with a velvety texture and strong visual contrast. New leaves may emerge with red, bronze, or deep reddish tones before gradually hardening into darker green to nearly black foliage as they mature. The leaf surface can develop a refined, satin-like sheen with prominent veining that adds depth and structure to the plant. Anthurium King of Spades Red typically grows in an upright, self-heading habit, producing increasingly larger leaves as it matures under stable warm and humid conditions. Mature specimens can become impressive display plants with bold foliage, elegant proportions, and a strong collector appeal.

Care Guide

Grow Anthurium King of Spades Red in bright, indirect light to support healthy leaf development and rich coloration. Water when the top layer of the potting mix begins to dry, keeping the roots lightly moist but never soggy. This tropical aroid prefers high humidity, ideally 60% or higher, and warm temperatures between 65–85°F. Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, coco chips, sphagnum moss, and a small amount of organic material to promote strong root growth.

Why Collectors Love It

Collectors love Anthurium King of Spades Red for its rare dark foliage, red emergent leaves, and bold spade-shaped appearance. It is a premium Anthurium hybrid for growers who appreciate dramatic, high-impact tropical plants.
