Product Details

Anthurium crystallinum is a striking tropical plant known for its large, heart-shaped leaves with a velvety texture and prominent white veins that create a beautiful contrast against the deep green foliage. The leaves can grow up to 30 cm (12 inches) long and are slightly elongated with a glossy sheen. The plant has a compact growth habit, with leaves emerging on long petioles that rise from the base, adding to its elegant appearance. This species is admired not only for its foliage but also for its unique inflorescence, although the flowers are not as showy as the leaves.

  • Size: Typically grows up to 60 cm (24 inches) tall and 60 cm (24 inches) wide.
  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged; water when the top inch of soil feels dry.
  • Humidity: Thrives in high humidity (60-80%); mist regularly or use a humidifier.
  • Temperature: Ideal temperature range is 18-24°C (65-75°F); protect from cold drafts.
  • Soil: Use a well-draining, airy potting mix, such as a blend of orchid bark, perlite, and peat moss.
  • Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
  • Pruning: Remove dead or yellowing leaves to maintain plant health and appearance.
  • Propagation: Propagate by division or stem cuttings in spring or early summer.
  • Pests: Watch for common pests like aphids, spider mites, and mealybugs; treat with insecticidal soap if necessary.
