Anthurium regale is a Peruvian species that produces some of the largest foliage in the genus, with broad, heart-shaped, velvety leaves that can grow to well over a metre long in the right conditions. The surface is a deep, dark green with a soft velvet texture, overlaid with bold, silvery-white veining that becomes more prominent and impressive as the leaves increase in size. It is a terrestrial, non-climbing Anthurium that grows slowly but delivers something genuinely dramatic once established. 

Origins 

Native to the lowland rainforests of Peru, Anthurium regale grows terrestrially on shaded forest floors in warm, humid conditions at low to moderate elevations. It was relatively obscure in cultivation until recently but has become highly sought after for its sheer leaf size and vein contrast.
