Anthurium membranaceum (seedling)
A striking climbing species from the cloud forests of South America, prized for its unusually large, thin-textured leaves with a distinctly membranous quality. Young plants already display the characteristic narrow, lanceolate-elliptic leaf form with a prominent midrib and long, slender petioles that hint at the impressive foliage to come at maturity.
- Light: Bright filtered light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can damage the thin, membranous leaf surface.
- Temperature: 64–82°F (18–28°C); an intermediate-warm grower that should be protected from cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F (13°C).
- Humidity: 65–85%; high humidity is essential to maintain the delicate leaf texture and support vigorous growth.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of substrate feels dry; avoid waterlogging, which can cause root rot in the fine root system.
Additional Notes
Grows best in a chunky, well-draining aroid mix of bark, perlite, and coco coir; provide a moss pole or totem to encourage the natural climbing habit and larger leaf development. Offered as a well-rooted seedling — an excellent opportunity to grow this rare collector species from an early stage.
