One of my forever favorites — Mr. Worldwide × (Spider Bess × BVEP) putting out another leaf
It’s been a minute since I’ve properly introduced you all to a new leaf, and of course it would be this one.
Anthurium Mr. Worldwide × (Spider Bess × BVEP) — originally acquired from Nick Cook and still easily one of my favorite Anthuriums in my collection.
If you’ve followed my posts for a while, you’ve probably seen this plant before. A lot. 😂
One of the things I love about it is that it has never been particularly interested in growing “perfectly.” Some leaves come out beautifully shaped. Others come out completely wonky. Every now and then it throws a little variegation into the mix just to keep things interesting.
This newest leaf, though… 🤌🏾
The size-up is beautiful, I love the shape, and those long veins running through that almost deceptively simple green leaf are exactly why I keep photographing this thing.
Somewhere along the way, the original plant also became more than one. I now have a couple of offsets growing from it — including one that seems VERY committed to carrying on the family tradition of weird leaves. 😂
I’ve posted this plant quite a few times over the years, so it’s been really cool watching it develop, change and become its own thing.
Definitely one of those Anthuriums I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of growing.
