I've been waiting for this since you mentioned it in the last video! Please do more of these for the other anthuriums like the papillilaminums and besseaes, two of my favorite anthuriums that are also super variable

[@plantgayforlife]

YES! I intend to make videos like this for several of the popular anthuriums out there!

Really enjoyed this creative storytelling! Thank you!

Thanks! I thought it was an interesting backstory to this plant!

[@annafink2245]

We need a video explaining hybrids and how they work exactly, and how if you just combine 2 plants that's not the same as some of the famous "named" hybrids, etc.. it's so confusing.

[@plantgayforlife]

That would be a great video! I’ll definitely make that. The shorter answer to your question is that every seedling (like people) is unique and a little different. So the named hybrids are either clones or carefully selected to have consistent traits, whereas the rest of the seedlings of that same cross might look different and less desirable.

I want more backstory videos on popular anthuriums

[@kunalsharma903]

Some say Ace is a complex hybrid involving Dressleri/Papillilaminum x Crystallinum

[@plantgayforlife]

We will never sadly now that the mother plant is gone.

[@user-el3tm8zk2s]

There are several versions of the story. What I heard is similar to what the author described. AOS may be a native species. Because aroids were not taken seriously in the early days and the pride was cheap, farms did not need to put as much effort into complex hybrid.
