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.

Not for us, unfortunately.
Pattern Name: Chipmunk
Cute idea. We have doxies. Unfortunately, they ripped the apart in 5 minutes to get to the squeaker. I'm sure other breeds are more gentle with their toys. It would be a great toy for them.

Very durable
Pattern Name: Chipmunk
Our dog loves this "squeaky." He got it as a gift 11 months ago and I finally had to replace it because he almost had the head and tail chewed off -- took him about a year of chewing. I almost hated to throw the old one away because the squeakers still worked! Our dog is small -- about 22 lbs. -- but is a terrier mix and loves playing tug-of-war with this Zippy toy and he also loves shaking it like crazy. It's a great value compared to the toys I find in the local pet stores. Most of those "die" because he punctures them with his teeth so they no longer squeak. This one is well worth the price.

My big dogs FAVE!
Pattern Name: Chipmunk, Pattern Name: Chipmunk
These are the absolute best! We bought one in store over the holidays because they don’t have the stuffing that dogs like to pull out. My big dog thinks it’s his baby, but it’s light enough for my small dogs. As it got tattered from being carried, fetched, and bathed… we needed a replacement. He doesn’t do anything without his baby. He immediately took to this as it wasn’t brand new. Success with the replacement. I will definitely be buying again, because nobody one wants a sad pup.

A hound's dream toy.
Size: Small, Style: Mallard Duck
I bought this for our "grandson"--a happy go lucky beagle--to play with while we were dogsitting. It took a while to motivate him to play with it, but eventually he caved... and then promptly proceeded to tear its insides out! I took a photo and sent it to my son, and he remarked, "Wow, it has been a long time since he played with a toy like that." So even an old hound past his prime enjoyed this toy. As for quality, this is a very well made toy. Yes, it's true that the dog ripped it to shreds, but that'll happen to any toy if the dog is determined enough. I was happy he enjoyed it. He also has two loofa dog toys here that he hardly ever touches, but this duck toy was too much for him to resist. My only suggestion is to supervise your dog while he plays with this. Besides the inner stuffing, the toy has a fuzzy surface to it, and you don't want him chewing a bunch of fuzz if he tears some out, as dogs are apt to do. Other than that, GREAT DOG TOY!
