A Short Introduction To Tulip Anthuriums


Tulip anthuriums originally come from the exotic South American country of Panama. Inside the wild, they prefer to live on boulders which are located alongside streams. I assume they enjoy chilling out by streams, much like fly fishermen do.

They're a most superb selection of anthurium, since they have a pleasing, sweet-smelling fragrance and they can sprout nearly eight blooms a year. Furthermore, they make superb house plants, because they are tiny and don't take up a lot of room.

They are an fascinating species of anthurium mainly because of the unique shape of their flowers. Rather than being in the shape of a heart similar to other anthuriums, they are tulip shaped. They have dark purple noses and light purple petals. I'm keen on how they're like tulips with a tropical ambiance. Pure-breed Amnicola generate modest, dark-green, spade shaped leaves and small blooms with short stems that generally max out at twelve inches long.

Amnicola has regularly been hybridized with Anthurium Andraeanum to create a variety of flower colors, which can be: purple, red, pink, green, lavender, fuschia and white. Hybrid amnicola and pure-breed amnicola can both yield up to 8 blooms per year, which means your amnicola might have blooms on it all year round. Additionally , it produces offshoots very quickly, so it's perfect if you wish to make a lot more plants. You may permit offshoots develop for a while and when they're large enough you may split them from the parent plant and set them in their own pots.

A few of the hybrids may have fascinating names such as Lady Jane, Misty Pink, Pink Elf and Pink Champagne. Others have less creative names such as: Andraecola-1 and Andraecola-2 that were created by taking the first part of Andraeanum as well as the last part of Amnicola and putting them together. Needless to say these will probably be given other names at some point.
