Description
Add something a little more unusual to your houseplant collection with Anthurium peltigerum, a distinctive tropical Anthurium grown for its impressive foliage. Its elongated green leaves develop a beautifully textured appearance as they mature, giving the plant an exotic, architectural quality that stands out amongst more familiar houseplants.
Native to tropical Central and South America, Anthurium peltigerum naturally grows in warm, humid forest environments. Indoors, it appreciates similar conditions, performing particularly well in bright, indirect light with good humidity and a loose, airy growing medium.
As the plant matures, its foliage becomes increasingly impressive, making it an excellent choice for collectors who enjoy watching unusual Anthurium species develop over time. Its rich green colouring also makes it easy to combine with variegated and colourful tropical plants in a larger indoor display.
While a little more particular about its growing conditions than some beginner houseplants, Anthurium peltigerum is very rewarding when given warmth, humidity and careful watering, making it an excellent addition to an Anthurium or aroid collection.
How to Care for Anthurium peltigerum
• Position in bright, indirect light, protected from strong direct sunlight.
• Water when the upper layer of compost begins to dry, keeping the growing medium lightly moist but never waterlogged.
• Use a chunky, free-draining aroid mix that allows plenty of air around the roots.
• Appreciates moderate to high humidity and warm, stable indoor temperatures.
• Feed approximately once a month during spring and summer with a diluted balanced houseplant fertiliser.
• Avoid cold draughts and prolonged temperatures below around 15°C.
