Anthurium luxurians, also known as "Quilted Hearts," is an exotic and rare species of anthurium that has captured the attention of plant collectors due to its spectacular foliage and specific care requirements. It belongs to the Araceae family and was first described in 2005 by botanists Thomas B. Croat and Ricardo N. Cirino. Native to the humid tropical forests of Colombia and Ecuador, this epiphytic or terrestrial plant naturally grows in shaded environments along waterways, which explains its preference for humidity and diffused light.

Features

  • Leaves: The leaves are the main attraction of Anthurium luxurians. They are large (up to 58 cm long and 46 cm wide), heart-shaped or oval, with a "quilted" (wrinkled, padded) texture that gives them a three-dimensional, almost sculptural appearance. The leaf surface is glossy, with prominent veins resembling the facets of a cut diamond, reflecting light in a way that creates a metallic effect. The leaf color changes dramatically as they grow:
    • Young leaves appear in shades of pink, red, bronze, or chocolate brown.
    • At maturity, they become dark green with an iridescent shine, sometimes with bluish or nearly black hues.
    • The underside of the leaves is lighter, often lime green.
  • Stems and growth: The plant has short, thick stems with reddish highlights and a compact habit, usually reaching a height of 40-60 cm and a width of 25-50 cm indoors. Growth is slow but steady, making it suitable for limited spaces. It may have an upright or trailing growth habit, making it ideal for hanging baskets or stands.
  • Flowers: Although mainly grown for its foliage, Anthurium luxurians can produce inconspicuous inflorescences with a creamy white spathe and a green spadix. The flowers are not the main attraction, being less decorative than the leaves.

Care

Anthurium luxurians is an intermediate-level plant, requiring attention to detail but able to thrive with proper care. Here are the essential requirements:

  • Light: Prefers strong indirect light for 6-10 hours a day. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but the leaves lose intensity and shine. Direct sunlight can cause leaf burns. A spot about 1 meter from a window with filtered light or using thin curtains to diffuse the light is recommended.
  • Watering: The soil should be kept consistently moist but not soaked. Water when the top 5-7 cm of soil are dry, usually every 7-9 days depending on light and temperature conditions. Excess water can lead to root rot, while complete drying of the soil can cause leaf curling. Water should be at room temperature, preferably lime-free (e.g., rainwater).
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity, 60-80%, ideally 70%. In dry environments, leaves may develop dry or yellow edges. Using a humidifier, misting the leaves, or grouping with other tropical plants to increase local humidity is recommended.
  • Temperature: The optimal range is between 18-27°C, with a minimum of 15°C. Temperatures below 10°C can harm the plant, and exposure to cold drafts should be avoided.
  • Soil: Prefers a well-drained mix, possibly slightly acidic (pH 5.5-6.5), made of orchid bark, perlite, peat moss, or a special mix for aroids. Drainage is essential to prevent water accumulation.
  • Repotting and pruning: Needs repotting every 1-2 years into a pot 2-3 cm wider in diameter. Pruning is limited to removing discolored or damaged leaves to conserve the plant’s energy.

Uses and aesthetics

With its lush foliage, Anthurium Luxurians is a collector’s piece for lovers of exotic plants. It is ideal for indoor decoration, especially in spaces with filtered light such as living rooms, offices, or greenhouses. Due to its texture and colors, it adds a touch of tropical elegance and can be displayed in decorative pots, hanging baskets, or on stands to highlight its sculptural leaves. It is a plant that draws attention and admiration, often considered a "trophy" in aroid collections.

Height including pot: approx. 15-20 cm

Note: Plant with delicate foliage – leaves may show defects/damage.

Decorative pot not included in the price.

Dog loves them
Size: 6 Inch, Color: Independence Day
My dog loved the first ball I got her, so I got her a second one. Both hhavr been very durable (she likes to puncture things with her teeth). I left each ball slightly deflated, so they were still firm, but she could bite them without issues. She has not punctured either ball yet. I did have to watch her because she started trying to chew the tabs off because she was bored. She has not chewed one off, just started thinking about it, and did a tiny bit of damage to one tab. She loves these balls. We have played tug of wat with them too, so yhe tabs are sturdy, and so is the ball. The dog did not care what collar she got, so I grabbed the least expensive one, and the 6 inch. She is a medium sized dog with razor teeth, and these work great.

Not recommended for the aggressive player..
Size: 6 Inch, Color: Red, Size: 6 Inch, Color: Red
First this ball was not delivered when it should have been. Second, the tabs are poorly made. One day of my dog playing with it and the tabs are already torn up. The ball itself is fun for her and has not deflated for now at least.

Good toy for dogs
Size: Large Size 3, Color: White-Blue
Bought this for our husky. Thought it would be bigger but it’s a good size for her. She has not managed to tear it apart after having it for a few months.

Puppy proof!
Size: Large Size 3, Color: White-Blue
Purchased the blue ball. Puppy loves to carry and shake the ball with the strapes in her mouth. Lots of bite marks but hasnt popped it. We bought 2. She plays in her fenced in yard with them. Fun to throw and kick around.

Great Toy For Playful Pup
Size: Medium Size 2, Color: White-Blue
We have purchased three of these! Our dog is obsessed with them and they keep her very entertained. The strap is a great tool for her to easily pick up the ball.
