Whatnot LiveCormQueen's Pick of the Week
Every week, CormQueen picks one TC she thinks deserves a little extra attention.
π Why It Made the Cut
π CORMQUEEN'S PICK OF THE WEEK
Anthurium βPterodactylβ πΏπ¦
Why this one?
Because Pterodactyl doesn't stay boring.
As this Anthurium matures, its foliage develops that wild, deeply lobed, almost prehistoric shape that earned it the name Pterodactylβand THAT is exactly the kind of plant I love.
πΏ The leaves get better with age.
The more mature it gets, the more dramatic that signature shape becomes.
π¦ It's weird in the best possible way.
This isn't another plant that's just pretty. It's funky, prehistoric-looking, and has a personality all its own.
π Collector vibes without being another copy-paste plant.
It stands out in a collection, especially once those mature leaves start showing off.
π And let's be real... I want to watch the glow-up.
Half the fun of growing a TC is knowing that tiny little baby is eventually going to turn into THAT.
CormQueen Verdict:
I like my plants a little unusual, a little dramatic, and capable of making me check the cabinet 14 times a day for a new leaf.
Pterodactyl understood the assignment. ππ¦πΏ
