Anthurium ‘$tarstruckk’ (forgetii x pulcachense)
On December 16th 2022 Brett Cypress collected pollen from Anthurium pulcachense and manually applied it to a female receptive Anthurium forgetii inflorescence in the Gabriella Plant's greenhouses as part of our ongoing breeding program. On March 30th 2023, seeds were collected from the berries that formed from the successful pollination and were sown. These are the plants that grew from those seeds! Anthurium forgetii is epiphytic in nature and native to Colombia, with it first being described in 1906. Anthurium pulcachense is a newer Anthurium, first being described in 2008 when it was discovered in Peru growing terrestrially. Both of these Anthuriums belong to the Section Cardiolonchium. Due to Anthurium pulcachense being more recent in cultivation there are not that many hybrids out there, and we believe these forgetii x pulcachense hybrid seedlings to be the first of their kind! This cross gave us a very low yield of seeds so we only have an extremely limited amount of these one-of
