Anthurium plant `75-10`

Abstract

A new variety of Anthurium is provided. The inflorescences are composed of red spathes with a red-purple spadix carried on dark red-brown peduncles. The flowers are held slightly above the foliage with the leaves being dark green, shiny and often have light reddish-brown petioles. The plant canopy width is greater than the canopy height and the plant habit is freely branching, compact and upright.

I claim:
