Name: Anthurium Rabbit Ears
Parents: Anthurium crystallinum × Anthurium pinkleyi
Cultivation: Hybrid by Ecuagenera.
Etymology: The genus name Anthurium derives from the Greek anthos ("flower") and oura ("tail"). Rabbit Ears ("rabbit ears") refers to the elongated, later distinctly lobed leaf shape.
Location/Cultivation Conditions: We cultivate the hybrid in bright to partial shade at approximately 18–27 °C, with high humidity and good air circulation. We keep a coarse, humus-rich, and airy aroid substrate evenly slightly moist. We avoid intense direct midday sun and waterlogging.
Description and Notes: Anthurium Rabbit Ears combines the velvety surface and light venation of Anthurium crystallinum with the more elongated, lobed leaf shape of Anthurium pinkleyi. Young plants often initially have narrow, relatively simple leaves; the more characteristic shape develops with increasing age. Seedlings can vary significantly.
