{"product_id":"anthurium-luxurians-x-papi","title":"Anthurium Luxurians x Papi","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn extraordinary hybrid born from two of the most coveted aroids in the collector world, the \u003cstrong\u003eAnthurium Luxurians x Papi\u003c\/strong\u003e merges the deeply bullate, quilted grandeur of \u003cem\u003eA. luxurians\u003c\/em\u003e with the dark, dramatic intensity of its Papi parentage. The result is a plant of singular presence — thick, heavily textured leaves with a pronounced pebbled surface and a deep, lustrous green that borders on obsidian in low light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bullation — the signature raised, bubble-like texture between the veins — is amplified in this hybrid, creating a tactile and visual depth rarely seen outside the most curated collections. New growth emerges with a warm bronze or copper flush before maturing to its characteristic deep green, adding a dynamic seasonal quality to its already remarkable foliage. A true centerpiece for the serious aroid collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright to medium indirect light. \u003cem\u003eA. luxurians\u003c\/em\u003e heritage means this hybrid tolerates slightly lower light than many aroids, but brighter indirect light will encourage larger, more bullate leaves. Avoid direct sun.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of substrate are dry. Excellent drainage is non-negotiable — this hybrid is sensitive to overwatering and root rot. Allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings rather than staying consistently moist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHumidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thrives at 65–85% relative humidity. A dedicated humidifier is strongly recommended to support the development of the characteristic bullate texture. Consistent humidity produces the most dramatic leaf structure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 65–82°F (18–28°C). Avoid cold drafts, air conditioning vents, and temperatures below 55°F, which can cause stress and leaf damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e A very chunky, well-aerated aroid mix is essential — combine orchid bark, coarse perlite, and a small amount of premium potting mix. This hybrid benefits from a mix that dries relatively quickly between waterings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feed every 3–4 weeks during the growing season (spring through summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength. A calcium-magnesium supplement can support the development of thick, textured foliage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRepotting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Repot every 1–2 years or when roots become visibly bound. Choose a container only slightly larger than the root ball — this hybrid prefers a snug fit, which reduces overwatering risk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eToxicity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toxic to pets and humans if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep out of reach of children and animals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Leaf and Reef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47535314534571,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0786\/5617\/6299\/files\/IMG-4636.heic?v=1785452795","url":"https:\/\/leafandreefplants.com\/products\/anthurium-luxurians-x-papi","provider":"Leaf and Reef","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
