Anthurium Crystallinum x Pinkleyi ‘Rabbit Ears’ is a rare hybrid that blends the bold venation and velvety texture of Crystallinum with the elongated, upright leaf form of Pinkleyi. The nickname “Rabbit Ears” comes from its distinctive foliage shape—long, narrow, and slightly upright leaves that resemble a pair of ears. The leaves are deep green with a velvety surface, accented by strong white venation inherited from Crystallinum. Collectors prize this hybrid for its unusual morphology and striking presence, making it a centerpiece in curated velvet-leaf collections.
Care Guide

- Water: Keep soil evenly moist but allow the top layer to dry slightly between waterings.
- Humidity: Requires high humidity (70%+). Benefits from humidifiers or greenhouse conditions.

- Toxicity: Not safe for pets if ingested.
