Anthurium carlablackiae (Panama, found by Carla Black) is a near-black velvet with bold white veins and electric-pink emergent veining, compact and thick-leaved — one of the most prized velvet species for breeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eTogether they make a compact, dark velvet leaf with high-contrast veins — forgetii's rounded form and pale rim meeting carla's near-black depth and pink-flushed new growth. This plant carries high variegation on top of that. Seed-grown and one of a kind; variegated velvet is more delicate and leans on its green to grow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- ===== THIS SPECIMEN ===== --\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top: 26px;\"\u003eThis specimen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"line-height: 1.7;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStage:\u003c\/strong\u003e establishing juvenile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeaves:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3, all showing variegation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePot:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariegation:\u003c\/strong\u003e High across current growth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inner pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acclimated and ready to ship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 1.6; color: #6b2d5c;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne specimen.
