The specimen
Closed, round, and half yellow.
Forgetii as the pod parent, which sets the outline: a near round blade with no basal lobes and bright silver venation across it.
The pollen side is carlablackiae crossed with Ace of Spades, two of the darkest, heaviest velvets available. That pairing brings depth and substance behind forgetii's shape, so the leaf reads as one continuous rounded form with real weight to it.
The sectoring on this specimen is broad and covers most of one half.
Her line comes from Aroid Sanctum.
What is behind her
Where each trait comes from.
A cross is not a blend. Each parent decides different things, and knowing which one is responsible for what tells you a great deal about how a clone from her will grow out.
Anthurium forgetii
The only parent here that changes the shape of the leaf outright. Forgetii has no sinus at all, meaning the blade closes completely at the base into a smooth ellipse instead of a heart, and that trait carries through crosses with unusual persistence. Leaves are held pendant on thin petioles, with fine silver venation on a matte surface. It is a smaller, lighter species that adds elegance rather than mass. Where papillilaminum opens the base of a leaf, forgetii pulls it shut, and in a cross between the two the result usually lands somewhere in between. Expect a rounder, more continuous leaf and a more delicate habit.
Anthurium carlablackiae
The species most collectors are actually chasing, and the one that costs the most to put into a cross. It comes from Panama and gives a compact, rounded heart with a deeply closed sinus, so the leaf reads almost circular rather than pointed. The velvet is exceptionally dark, closer to black than green under most light, with clean bright venation running across it. It stays smaller than magnificum or papillilaminum and holds a tight, upright form rather than sprawling. Growth is slow and deliberate. In a cross it pulls the leaf shorter and wider and deepens the colour, and it usually wins the argument about outline.

What a clone from this mother is
Not a seedling. Not a cross. The same plant.
- Every specimen released under Solis is a rooted clone taken from the plant on this page. No seed. No variation lottery.
- Genetically identical. Same variegation genetics, same leaf architecture, same growth habit.
- What you see above is what yours becomes.
- Grown in Sweden from propagation onward. No import shock between her and your plant.
All variegated aroids carry long-term reversion risk, and no grower can honestly promise otherwise. What you get is her exact genetics and her documented track record, not a guarantee about every future leaf.

You will hear from us the day a clone from her is ready, before it goes public.
Released from this mother
Taken from Solis.
Each of these is a rooted clone from the plant above. Same genetics, same leaf architecture, grown on here before release.
