Anthurium plant "A6"

Abstract

A new variety of Anthurium is provided. It is a medium size plant, suitable for production in 15 cm to 25 cm pots from a single tissue culture produced microcutting with vigorous growth; early and abundant branching; early and abundant year-round flowering. Leathery, extremely dark green and glossy leaves sharply contrast with long-lasting, medium, uniform-in-size spathes of unusual pink color with dark spadixes. Most spathes are held almost centrally at nearly the same level above foliage on strong peduncles, red in their distal part.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct cultivar of Anthurium plant named `A6`, substantially as described and illustrated herein, characterized particularly as to novelty by its medium size; regular and compact growth habit; vigorous growth; early and abundant branching; exceptionally dark, glossy foliage; early and exceptionally abundant year-round flowering; long-lasting spathes of an unusual pink color carried on straight, strong, distally red peduncles at nearly the same level above foliage and by red-purple spadixes.
