Medium Apoballis Acuminatissima 'Lavallaei' Statement with a burgundy undersideOnce believed to be a species of Schismatoglottis plant, the Apoballis Acuminatissima was recognized as a new genus in 2009! These plants almost look like they're in cam flange, with mottled silver variegated leaves that then also have a striking deep burgundy underside. The Lavallaei is native to Indonesia where it grows in the humid tropical forests. The care is similar to many other Aroid plants, and can most closely be compared to Anthuriums.
