Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’

Rounded peltate leaves make Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’ easy to separate from many heart-shaped velvet Anthuriums. Bright pale veins spread across the compact velvet blades, while the upper leaf outline stays smooth and closed.

The petiole meets the blade away from the edge, creating the shield-like structure that defines the species. The silver veins add contrast without changing the plant’s compact character.

Rounded leaves on Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’

  • Peltate leaf attachment: The petiole joins the blade away from the margin, creating a shield-like leaf shape.
  • Closed upper outline: The leaves form a smooth rounded top with no open sinus.
  • Velvet texture: Mature foliage has a soft, matte surface.
  • Silver venation: Pale veins spread across the rounded blade and remain visible as leaves harden.
  • Compact crown: The plant stays relatively contained and grows without climbing support.

How the peltate foliage develops

New leaves on Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’ expand soft and folded, then harden into a rounded blade. Stable humidity during this stage helps the leaf open evenly, while root stress or pest damage can distort the shape before the blade has finished expanding.

The plant usually prefers a pot that matches the root size closely. Too much wet substrate around a smaller root system can slow growth, especially after shipping or repotting.

Care for Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’

  • Light: Bright filtered light keeps the plant compact and helps new leaves develop a clear outline.
  • Water: Water evenly, then let the upper part of the mix dry slightly before the next watering.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky Anthurium mix with good drainage and enough moisture retention for fine roots.
  • Humidity: Around 60–75% humidity is helpful while new peltate leaves unfold.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm, ideally above 20 °C during active growth and never in cold wet substrate.
  • Pot size: Keep the pot proportionate to the root system so the mix does not remain wet for too long.

Problems to catch early

  • Misshapen new leaves: Check humidity, root health and pests if fresh leaves open unevenly.
  • Brown leaf edges: Dry air, mineral build-up or repeated drying can mark the velvet margin.
  • Slow growth: Often follows repotting, root loss or a pot that stays wet longer than the roots can use.
  • Thrips or mites: Inspect the newest foliage if you see pale scarring, speckling or rough patches.

Safety around Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’

Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’ contains calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets and small children, and avoid contact with sap from cut or damaged tissue, as it can irritate skin or eyes.

Botanical background for Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’

The genus name Anthurium comes from Greek words for flower and tail, referring to the spadix. Anthurium forgetii N.E.Br. was published in 1906 and is accepted as a Colombian species from the wet tropical biome. The species epithet forgetii commemorates Monsieur Forget, the collector linked to the botanical name. Bright pale veins run across the compact peltate leaves of Anthurium forgetii ‘Silver’.

Mature growth stays compact, with rounded velvet leaves and pale veins held close above the pot.

Love them!
Color: White-cooling Basic, Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
Love them! After 10 years with our MyPillows, they finally lost their fluff. The reviews I read of the MyPillows of today were not good; they didn’t have as much filling as they used to. These pillows remind me of how fluffy our new MyPillows were 10 years ago!! You sink right into them and can mush them however and they stay. These are way cheaper than the Coop and it’s the same concept; add or remove the filling as needed. The cooling side is a huge plus too! You won’t be disappointed with these pillows!

A lot of comfort for a very inexpensive price
Style: 18", Color: Grey, Size: Twin
We needed a spare mattress, but didn’t want to have a dedicated spare bedroom but wanted a comfortable bed. Couldn’t afford these high priced mattresses these days like the air beds or luxury coil spring with gel which are thousands of dollars. Miss air mattresses, very comfortable and adorable and I like the flocked top on it. And it has the self inflatable pump which is very easy and inconvenient.This makes a very inexpensive alternative. Even if it only lasts 6 months or so you can buy a whole lot of these for a lot less money than thousands of dollars for the other beds. In tax is a wonderful brand. I’ve bought it many times. Their vinyl material is very thick and durable. Intex makes flotation devices, blowup rafts, beach floaties, Kayaks, etc. They have an excellent product & know what they’re doing.

Great Queen Size Air Mattress - NO Fuss
Style: 18", Color: Grey, Size: Queen
Great air mattress! Comfortable to sleep on. Powerful pump. Nice size. The bag to store it is very convenient and one of the easiest to put bed in once deflated. Reviews spot on with this product.

Skeptical at first, but after first use (so far) it’s a solid product
Style: 22", Color: Grey, Size: Queen
I initially bought this to stay at my MIL’s senior community (to help her get settled), so I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on it and I planned to leave it for other relatives that might want to visit. I expected it to be cheap-ish quality and probably not last through my two week stay. First off, set up was a breeze. I laid it out and started inflation and it took about 4-5 minutes to fully inflate. The motor made noise, but it’s to be expected from something like this—I can say that it wasn’t as noisy as our Costco-bought mattress. Second, it’s big—but that’s not a bad thing as much as I thought anyway after I saw it fully inflated. Turns out, for me, it’s a good thing. Our Costco mattress sits low to the floor and as it deflates a bit during the night, it’s tough to get up. This one (the 22” model and the largest one at this writing) is wonderful as I can sit on the edge of it and stand up easily. Your experience may be different, but for older folks it makes it really easy to get out of bed in the morning. How does it sleep? Well, since I was visiting by myself and my significant other wasn’t with me, I can only speak for a single sleeper. It was really comfortable! It did take a bit of tweaking though as I thought I would like it more firm as I like to side sleep. The first couple of nights were a bit rough as I tossed and turned a bit in my sleep—I found that I couldn’t get comfortable on my side. For the reviews that say that it deflates after sleeping on it, I can say that it did seem to lose some air after the first two nights. The manufacturer does state that it does “stretch” and not deflate. As I wanted to test that statement, I didn’t change the firmness of it by re-inflating it to where I had it. The third and fourth nights were better sleep and I didn’t feel like the mattress deflated at all, so I found the stretch statement to be valid—it wasn’t losing air. After that night, I re-inflated it to where I thought I’d like it. The next night was the same tossing and turning that I had those first two nights, so I concluded that I needed to make it less firm and I actually DEflated it a bit and for the rest of the stay it was perfect! I didn’t have to touch it and I even unplugged it. When I was getting ready to leave, I started the deflation process by turning the dial in the opposite direction. It took longer to deflate, so I walked away for a bit—I’d guess about 7-8 minutes. When I came back the mattress was flat as a pancake and ready to fold. This is the only hassle of the process as folding it to get it into the storage bag and back into the box (for storage). I do like the tote that they provide as the handles make it easy to lug about. So, the first use was a success. If repeated uses reveal issues, I’ll report back. I will say that I plan to buy another one to replace our beloved Costco air mattress—she’s showing her age and the height of this one as well as the cost make it a no-brainer to get it as a second. We’ll use this one until it dies (if it even does) and then fall back on our old one if needed. I gave an overall 5 stars for the product with 4 stars for sleep quality and comfort only because your idea of these two might be a bit of a learning experience until you find your inflation sweet spot—so it’s not just an “inflate fully and use” type of scenario.

Comfortable, high-rise air mattress with built-in pump
Style: 22", Color: Grey, Size: Queen
The Intex Dura-Beam 22-inch Queen air mattress is one of the better inflatable beds I've used. The built-in pump is very convenient — no need for an external pump or battery-powered inflator. It inflates to full firmness in a few minutes and deflates just as quickly. The 22-inch height makes it easy to get in and out of, similar to a regular bed height. The plush comfort top adds a softer surface feel. The 600 lb weight capacity is reassuring for heavier users or couples. I've had guests sleep on this for multiple nights and they reported sleeping well. It held air overnight without significant deflation. My only note is to store it carefully to avoid punctures from sharp objects. Overall a great value for guests or camping.
