Anthurium Red Spider x Xone

🕷️🌿 Anthurium ‘Red Spider’ × Xone 🌿🕷️
*(pronounced “an-THUR-ee-um red SPY-der cross eks-ohn”) *

This armature of anthurium hybrids marries the spidery elegance of Anthurium Red Spider with traits from the Xone lineage (commonly used in breeding for vibrant leaf shapes and color). Expect slender, elongated leaves with dynamic red or burgundy tints, narrow lobes, and striking venation. The overall silhouette leans more elongated and lanceolate than broad, combining delicacy with bold coloration.

💡 Care Tips:
☀️ Light – Bright, indirect light brings out red hues and keeps leaf surfaces healthy. Shield from harsh midday sun to avoid bleaching.
💧 Water – Keep soil evenly moist, but allow the top ~1 inch (2–3 cm) to dry before watering. Use well-draining aroid mix to avoid soggy roots.
🌡️ Humidity – Prefers higher humidity (65 %+). Humidifier support helps maintain red tones and leaf resilience.
🌱 Growth – Semi-erect habit, moderate grower. Mature leaves may reach 12–18 inches (30–45 cm) long depending on conditions and parent vigor.

📊 Difficulty: Intermediate (balancing water, humidity, and light for red expression)
🐾 Pet Safety: Mildly toxic if ingested; may cause stomach upset. All pets are unique, and symptoms can vary in presentation or severity.

🌟 Collector’s Tip
Hybrids involving “Xone” often contribute greater vigor, stronger leaf plane stability, and more intense coloration over generations. Because Red Spider is prized for its narrow, elegant leaves and red hues, combining with Xone can yield offspring with dramatic, slender, red-tinged leaves that shift with light exposure. Rotate periodically to ensure even coloration, and avoid overfertilizing—too much N can push leaves back to green.
