Have been diving into anthuriums and hybrids etc. I saw this cool rainbow anthurium besseae and want to pick one up. I see them available online but not sure if all of them have iridescent leaves or if there is a particular one that’s known for their rainbow leaves. Any help is appreciated

    Almost all of them have some of that oil slick look on new emergents. The ones you see being called “rainbow besseae” have just been bred to increase how much. Tbh my “regular” besseae aff has super rainbow-y emergents and even more so now that it’s in cataphyll.

    Also. It’s only the emergents; they’ll harden off to a dark green.
