Anthurium ‘King of Spades’ (Anthurium ‘HU’)


Anthurium ‘King of Spades’, also known as Anthurium ‘HU’, is a dark velvet foliage Anthurium with broad leaves, a deep sinus and fine pale veining. Mature blades have a heavy, smooth outline and can appear dark green to almost black in suitable filtered light.

Large leaves rise on upright petioles from a compact base. As the blades increase in size, light support can steady the foliage and keep the petioles from pulling too far outward.



Leaf details on Anthurium ‘King of Spades’


  • Blade shape: Broad heart- to spade-shaped leaves with a deep sinus at the base.
  • Surface: Dark velvet texture that shows pale marks if handled roughly or kept wet.
  • Venation: Fine, subtle silver veins across the dark blade.
  • Margins: Smooth leaf edges give the mature blade a clean, wide outline.
  • Growth habit: Upright to semi-self-heading growth from a compact base.
  • Support option: Larger leaves may sit better with a discreet stake or low support.


Velvet leaves and support


As the weighty velvet leaves size up, the petioles can lean outward. A stable pot and low support keep the base secure while the leaves develop in their semi-upright shape.

Velvet leaves mark less easily when the plant grows in stable conditions. Warmth, humidity and an open substrate help new leaves unfold without tearing or sticking, while good airflow reduces the risk of marks on the leaf surface.



Care for Anthurium ‘King of Spades’


  • Light: Give bright filtered light. Direct sun can scorch velvet leaves, especially where glass intensifies heat.
  • Water: Let the upper part of the mix dry before watering again, then drain the pot fully.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps emerging leaves release cleanly from the cataphyll.
  • Air movement: Gentle airflow matters in humid conditions, especially around large velvet blades.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm and stable, away from cold windows and sudden night drops.
  • Substrate: Use bark, coco chips, coarse perlite, pumice or similar large particles around the roots.
  • Support: Add a small stake when leaf weight pulls the petioles outward.


Problems to watch for


  • Stuck or torn new leaves: Usually linked to dry air, low humidity swings or interrupted growth while the leaf is expanding.
  • Yellowing leaves: Check the roots if the pot has stayed wet or the mix has become compacted.
  • Brown tips: Can appear after dry spells, mineral buildup or very dry indoor air.
  • Leaning petioles: Larger leaves may need gentle support while the crown stays at normal planting depth.
  • Pest damage: Fine pale speckling, dull patches or distorted new leaves can point to mites or thrips.


Safety for Anthurium ‘King of Spades’


Keep Anthurium ‘King of Spades’ away from pets and children. The plant contains insoluble calcium oxalates, which can irritate the mouth, throat and stomach if chewed or swallowed.



Name etymology and background


Anthurium comes from Greek words meaning flower and tail, referring to the tail-like spadix of the inflorescence. ‘King of Spades’ and ‘HU’ are cultivated names for this dark velvet Anthurium bred by Haji Uli, with broad spade-shaped leaves, subtle pale veins and a semi-upright habit.

Smells and feels amazing!
This body wash is amazing! The smell is light scented coconut. It is moisturizing and leaves my skin feeling soft. It does not have an oily residue. I have reordered several times. The large bottle is a great value!

“Huele delicioso y no reseca la piel”
Excelente producto, lo volvería a comprar Este jabón corporal superó mis expectativas. Desde el primer uso se siente la piel más suave, hidratada y con un aroma delicioso a coco que no es empalagoso. Hace buena espuma y limpia muy bien sin resecar la piel, algo que para mí es muy importante. Lo he estado usando varios días y realmente noto la diferencia, mi piel se siente más cuidada y fresca. Además, el olor dura bastante tiempo después de usarlo, lo cual es un plus.

Best ball toy I have found
Size: Small
This is my dog’s absolute favorite. I bought this one as a replacement. Finally after years of use one of the tiny ribs gave way. Ball is still completely useable, but got another. She chomps down on it constantly, tears at it, shakes it in her mouth. It is extremely durable. One of the great things about this ball is how ‘soft’ it is. Meaning the way it’s constructed makes it have a lot of give. The texture of the ball itself is firm, but the amount of ‘airiness’ means you can throw it inside your home, against walls, furniture, etc without worrying about any damage. Great toy inside and outside. Highly recommended ball toy. They make all different sizes. My dog is 25 lbs and loves both the 3” and the mini. The mini ones are the same size as mini tennis balls..problem is she would destroy a mini tennis ball within a day of getting one. She has had the mini Hol-ee Roller for years. Super durable.

I have a toy dog and she really loves this
Size: Small
however her mouth is very small and she had a difficult time gripping the ball. so I took a pair of scissors and cut out a section to make a bigger hole for her to get her little mouth through and now she has a lot of fun picking it up and playing with it. The ball is well-made and is one of her favorite toys. if I tell her to go get her ball she will even go under the bed and is able to grab it and carry it up the stairs to the bed for playtime. It also makes it easy when we are in the yard when I throw it. It is light enough for her to carry and bring back to me. But, as I said , I did have to adapt it so she could get a grip.
