    Went to my local nursery today, where there is another Aroid "nut" (birds of a feather...) and he gave me this Anthurium. We looked through a 1960's book called Tropico or Tropica I think and came up with A. coriaceum. I'm absolutely stoked as I haven't seen this leaf "form before. Can someone confirm or deny this and tell me a little about the plant please. Thanks

    Thats the correct name Ed , very hardy species . Seen it growing out of a hollow in a tree at a nursery in Marybro'. Will take very bright light . It was one of my very early acquisitions .
