Anthurium Michelle® (DocBlock)


Young leaves on Anthurium Michelle® (DocBlock) can open in dark grey-green, brown, burgundy or purple tones before maturing to a darker green velvet surface. The plant forms a compact basal clump, with each new leaf adding another layer above the pot.

Mature leaves show a soft silvery sheen, pale green to grey-green venation and a lighter underside with red to purple vein detail. The shallow fleshy roots need a breathable mix that drains freely after watering.



Foliage and growth details of Anthurium Michelle®


  • Leaf shape: Cordate to narrow-cordate blades develop from the base of the plant.
  • New leaf colour: Young foliage can show burgundy, purple-brown or dark grey-green tones.
  • Mature surface: Dark green to grey-green velvet leaves develop a subtle silvery sheen.
  • Venation: Pale green to grey-green veins stand out softly across the mature upper surface.
  • Leaf reverse: Paler undersides can show red to purple vein colouring.
  • Growth habit: Clump-forming basal growth with leaves emerging from a compact base.
  • Root structure: Fleshy adventitious roots need a loose, well-aerated potting mix.


Growth habit and foliage development


Growth stays close to the crown: each leaf emerges from the basal centre, opens with stronger colour, then darkens as the blade firms. The silvery sheen and the contrast between the upper surface and pale reverse become clearer as the leaf matures.

The root system sits relatively shallow, so deep wet substrate can stress the roots before the leaves show clear symptoms. A chunky Anthurium mix keeps moisture available while leaving air pockets around the roots.



Care for Anthurium Michelle®


  • Light: Place it in medium to bright filtered light. Direct sun can mark the velvet surface and fade tender new leaves.
  • Water: Water when the top part of the mix has dried, then let excess water drain fully from the pot.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps the soft new leaves expand evenly and reduces dry edges during unfurling.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally in stable indoor temperatures around 15–29 °C.
  • Substrate: Use a fast-draining mix with orchid bark, coco chips, perlite, pumice or similar coarse material.
  • Airflow: Gentle airflow keeps moisture from sitting on velvet leaves in humid conditions.
  • Fertiliser: Feed lightly during active growth and flush the pot occasionally if salts build up in the substrate.


Common issues with Anthurium Michelle®


  • Marked velvet leaves: Direct sun, water droplets, handling damage or leaves touching hard surfaces can leave visible marks.
  • Brown edges: Low humidity, irregular watering or mineral buildup can dry the margins.
  • Yellowing and root decline: A dense wet mix can damage the shallow fleshy roots before the crown looks weak.
  • Distorted new leaves: Humidity dips and dry air can interrupt soft new growth while it is unfolding.
  • Pest pressure: Check velvet leaves, petioles and new growth for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs.


Safety for Anthurium Michelle®


Anthurium Michelle® is not intended for consumption. Keep it away from pets and children, as Anthurium leaves and stems contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and digestive tract if ingested.



Name etymology and cultivar background


The genus name Anthurium comes from Greek roots meaning flower and tail, a reference to the spadix. Michelle® is the DocBlock cultivar ‘BLOCANTMIC’, bred by Jeffrey Sherwood Block from an Anthurium magnificum line and selected after several generations of controlled self-pollination before commercial tissue-culture production.

Too much info
Format: Hardcover
This is a very detailed book, almost to detailed if you get overwhelmed easily as a new mom to be like I was. There are amazing pictures, and just about everything is answered here. This also goes great with the pregnancy day by day sister book if you like this much detail.

Love this book!!!
A pregnancy must have! Every day you get to follow along with what your baby is going through. I was so excited not to have to wait for the week mark to read something new. I loved the pictures and advice and information about what baby and I were experiencing and each time a new symptom came alone I opened this book and it would address that topic on that day. I highly recommend it for first time mom-to-be.

Perfect!
Great book for just what you need if you are a first time mom or dad. Lets you take in all of the overwhelming information that comes with parenthood in easy to bite pieces with pictures and captions. Very appealing to the eye and easy to put down and pick up whenever you have time. Does not go into a lot of detail on most things, just gives an overview and pointer for almost any question or concern a new parent might have. If you need more information because of your situation you can then seek it elsewhere.

Wonderful book
This is the best baby book ever in my opinion. It's very detailed and informative but the way it's set up doesn't make it overwhelming. Also, this book has lots of beautiful, colorful, bright pictures in it. I purchased this book along with Pregnancy Day by Day. I definitely recommend this book!
