Abstract
A new variety of Anthurium is provided. It is a dwarf plant, suitable for production in 7.5 cm to 15 cm pots. It can be produced in a 7.5 cm container within 7-8 months from planting a single tissue culture produced microcutting. `A2` has vigorous growth; early branching; abundant, year-round and extremely early natural flowering. Pink spathes of a good quality from the onset of flowering, large in relation to the plant, are held above foliage on straight, thick, strong, peduncles. After maturity spathes gradually become green and continue their attractiveness on the plant.
