About

Anthurium regale is a species of Anthurium (section Cardiolonchium), a genus of flowering aroid plant in the family Araceae. It was first described by Europeans in the 1866 edition of La Belgique Horticole, where it was noted to be first collected for the houseplant trade by Gustav Wallis during his time working for Jean Jules Linden. This impressive and sought-after Anthurium species is native to Peru, where it may be found near the Huallaga River valley, to the north of Tingo María and Juanjuí, in the regions of Huánuco and San Martín, respectively (with a number of specimens being described from the latter location). This species is found in forested areas, where it grows terrestrially, ranging from sea-level environments to cloud forests, up to about 243 meters (800 feet) in elevation. A.
