Anthurium Renaissance

From: David SCHERBERICH <earmag at cybercable.tm.fr> on 1998.04.16 at 22:32:31(2007) Dear all, while I was in a supermaket plant department this afternoon, I found a very big Anthurium from section Pachyneurium (birdnest) that was labeled Anthurium 'Renaissance'. The blade had no collective vein and the petiole was quadrangular, ribbed abaxially, the inflorescence erect, purplish if I remember well. It was very expensive, about $ 120 !!! It probably comes from Holland as does most of the plants there. Does someone know if this is a hybrid or a cultivar of a species ?

From: plantnut at shadow.net (Dewey Fisk) on 1998.04.17 at 04:24:25(2010) I know that Anthurium 'Hookerii' has been put into culture... Only thing is that it is not 'hookerii'. Croat says that it is a form of A. schlectendahlii (spelling). This is a common landscape plant here in S. Florida. Your plant is probably one of the TC plants. Hope this helps...
