ANTHURIUM
Velvet leaf Anthuriums are slow-growing collector plants, their appeal shaped by patience, care, and sculptural form. At Melty in Sydney, we release small, tightly curated batches, selecting distinctive rare specimens showcasing exceptional variegation and refined leaf structure. Each meticulously grown to mature with intention and ready to thrive on a worthy collector’s shelf.
In addition, we carefully select specific hybrids from our boutique collection to cross-breed, combining desirable traits for superior results. We take pride in growing and releasing healthy, vigorous seeds that carry unique, lust-after genetics and stand out characteristics for the Australian Anthurium market.
