Anthurium no. 0363 "Diego El Sabroso"

Diego's first bloom is, so far, also his only bloom, but it was okay:

The bloom color, frequency, and size are all average at best, but he does seem to be more resistant to thrips attack than most.

Not sure if thrips resistance is enough on its own to justify keeping the plant around, especially since there are plants from the same sibling group that are just as resistant and have nicer blooms,¹ but I'm willing to keep him around for a little while longer to see if anything interesting happens.
