Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' — Dark, Velvety Heart-Shaped Leaves

This cultivar shows dense, heart-shaped foliage with a velvety surface and prominent veining. Leaves develop rich, dark burgundy to near-black tones that read as deep colour blocks in cooler light; the overall silhouette is upright and compact, producing an elegant, foliage-forward visual effect on shelves and tabletops.

An upright, foliage-type Anthurium hybrid, it grows as a moderate, non-climbing plant rather than a vine. Young nursery specimens are sold as single crowns and will thicken into a fuller clump with time; propagation is usually by division at repotting. Growth is steady rather than rapid, so the leaf form and colour remain the main ornamental feature rather than dramatic seasonal changes.

In practical terms this plant suits apartment and indoor displays but has clear care expectations: it prefers higher humidity and bright, indirect light and is sensitive to direct sun (leaf scorch) and to overwatering. One important trade-off to note is toxicity — it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, so it is not pet-safe and can irritate if chewed or ingested. Pests such as spider mites and mealybugs are occasional concerns for owners.

Available in Baby and Medium size options, the smallest is useful as a grow-on or desk plant and fits small shelves, while the Medium gives a fuller display for a shelf or side table and provides greater visual impact.

Plant questions, answered

Is Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' safe for pets and children?

No, Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' is not pet-safe. The plant contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can cause oral irritation, drooling, vomiting and possible swelling if chewed or ingested. Keep Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' well out of reach of children and animals and avoid placing it where curious pets can access the foliage.

Can I place Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' in direct sunlight?

No, avoid strong direct sunlight for Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts'. This cultivar prefers bright, indirect light and sudden exposure to strong sun can cause leaf scorch. Place it near a north- or east-facing window or a bright spot with filtered light to protect the velvety leaves.

How often should I repot or divide Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts'?

Usually, repot Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' every 1–2 years or when it becomes root-bound. It is a moderate, upright grower and can be propagated by division during repotting; each division should include at least one growth point and some roots. Check the pot when the plant looks crowded and repot as needed.

Does Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' need high humidity?

Usually, Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts' prefers high humidity because it is a tropical houseplant. It benefits from a humidifier, pebble tray, or grouping with other plants, though behaviour varies with indoor climates. Maintaining higher humidity helps keep the leaves healthy and reduces stress-related leaf problems.

What pests or leaf problems should I watch for with Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts'?

Usually, the main issues are overwatering, spider mites and mealybugs. Overwatering can cause yellowing leaves and root problems, while direct sunlight causes leaf scorch; pests like spider mites and mealybugs can also appear. Inspect foliage regularly, adjust watering and light, and treat pests promptly to protect Anthurium 'Queen of Hearts'.

What size will I receive and where will it fit in my home?

Usually, you receive the size variant you choose; the Medium (P12 H35) is currently available while Baby (P6 H15) is out of stock. The Medium (12 cm pot, ~35 cm height) suits a shelf, side table or desk; the Baby (6 cm pot, ~15 cm) would fit a small shelf or desk when available.

Plant care guide

Light

Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid strong direct midday sun to prevent leaf scorch; a north- or east-facing window is ideal.

Water

Keep the substrate evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top layer of the potting mix to dry slightly between waterings.

Soil and repotting

Use a well-draining, airy potting mix rich in organic matter; mixes with perlite and orchid bark are suitable. Repot when the plant becomes root-bound (about every 1–2 years).

Humidity and temperature

Prefers high humidity; benefits from a humidifier, pebble tray or grouping with other plants. Maintain temperatures around 18°C to 25°C for optimal growth.

Feeding

During the growing season (spring and summer) feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertiliser; reduce feeding in autumn and winter.

Growth and support

Upright, compact to medium-sized foliage Anthurium; a moderate grower. No special structural support required. Propagate by division when repotting; repot when root-bound (typically every 1–2 years for nursery-grown plants).

Common concerns

Overwatering (yellowing leaves, root problems); pests such as spider mites and mealybugs; leaf scorch from strong direct sunlight or sudden exposure to bright light.

Pet safety

Not pet-safe. Contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals (raphides); all parts can cause oral and skin irritation if chewed or ingested. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
