🌿 Anthurium ‘Michelle’ DocBlock – F2 Mother Plant Clone | 1 or 2 Pack – Tissue Culture Pre-Order
Dark, velvety and beautifully dramatic, Anthurium ‘Michelle’ by DocBlock is a highly sought-after collector's Anthurium, admired for its striking foliage, rich colour transitions and elegant contrasting veins.
Its distinctive heart-shaped leaves emerge in beautiful shades of burgundy, purple and deep bronze, gradually developing darker green tones as they mature. Prominent pale veins contrast against the velvety foliage, creating the sophisticated appearance that makes Michelle so recognisable.
As the plant establishes and matures, its foliage becomes increasingly impressive, producing larger leaves with rich colouring, pronounced venation and a luxurious velvet-like texture.
With its exceptional foliage and striking colour transformations, Anthurium Michelle is a beautiful addition to any rare Anthurium collection.
✨ F2 Mother Plant Clone – Leaf Tissue Culture
This release is supplied under the laboratory designation F2 – Mother Plant Clone (Leaf TC).
The plantlets have been propagated through leaf tissue culture from selected mother plant material rather than being individually seed-grown.
This method is intended to reproduce the characteristics of the selected mother plant, although individual plants may still vary in appearance and development.
The F2 designation and propagation information are provided by our tissue-culture supplier.
✨ Tissue Culture Information – 1 or 2 Pack
This pre-order is available in two options:
• 1 Pack – One Anthurium Michelle DocBlock tissue-culture plantlet.
• 2 Pack – Two Anthurium Michelle DocBlock tissue-culture plantlets.
All plantlets are supplied in their laboratory-grown stage and require careful acclimatisation after removal from their sealed growing environment.
Young tissue-culture plantlets may initially display smaller, simpler foliage without the dramatic colouring or pronounced veining associated with mature examples. Their characteristic appearance will develop progressively as the plants establish and grow.
Every order includes an NPG Tissue Culture Acclimation Pack to help support the transition from laboratory conditions to normal growing conditions.
Please read both guides before purchasing or deflasking your plantlets:
• NPG Tissue Culture Acclimatisation Protocol
• NPG Tissue Culture Acclimation & Aftercare Guide
Tissue-culture plantlets are young, living plants, and some loss is always possible during acclimatisation. Please ensure you have an appropriate growing environment and are comfortable with the process before purchasing.
🌱 Pre-Order Information
This product is available for pre-order and is not ready for immediate dispatch.
All pre-orders are subject to supplier availability, international transport and New Zealand biosecurity clearance.
Dispatch will take place once the plantlets have arrived, completed the necessary import clearance requirements and are ready for distribution.
Import and delivery timeframes may change due to circumstances outside our control, including laboratory production, international freight and MPI processing.
✨ Care Once Acclimatised
Provide bright, indirect light, moderate to high humidity and warm, stable temperatures of approximately 20–28°C.
Keep the growing medium lightly and evenly moist while maintaining good airflow around the roots. Avoid prolonged waterlogging, cold temperatures and sudden environmental changes.
Once fully acclimatised, we recommend growing your Anthurium Michelle in our NPG Aroid Formula or another well-aerated, moisture-retentive aroid substrate.
Consistent warmth, appropriate humidity and stable growing conditions will encourage healthy root development and increasingly mature foliage.
🌱 NPG Tip
One of Michelle's most beautiful characteristics is the way its foliage changes colour as each new leaf develops.
Young leaves can emerge in rich burgundy or purple tones before gradually deepening and transitioning towards the darker green shades associated with mature foliage.
Don't judge your young tissue-culture plantlet too early! Juvenile leaves may look quite different from established examples, with the distinctive colouring, texture and venation becoming more noticeable as the plant grows.
Focus on healthy root development, consistent warmth and bright indirect light rather than trying to encourage stronger colour through excessive lighting.
Remember, individual plants may vary in leaf shape, colour intensity and growth rate, even when propagated from selected mother plant material.
