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.

A pain to put on the wall
4 stars only because to actually screw it into the wall you need either an angled screw driver, which we had to go buy, or a really really short screwdriver as the one that came with it is just a tad to long. Also the mollies that come with it our cheap and would not hold up on regular dry wall, which we found out, thank goodness, before we finished hanging it. As we were hanging it the top pulled right out of the wall. We had heavy duty ones at home already and used those. The shelf was a breeze to actually put together and once we got past the trouble of hanging it, is wonderful and looks great. So, 1. buy a better screwdriver, and 2. get heavy duty mollies.

Pretty and practical
Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 31.5 Inch
I love the rustic wood and iron look. It’s sturdy, spacious, and exactly what I needed in my basement apartment. I ended up buying another one to make it one long shelving unit. I highly recommend them!

Very handsome and functional shelf with a ton of space!
I was looking for a black wall shelf to go above our coffee bar that included a bar with hanging hooks for empty glasses and a bar towel. This shelf met those needs, and I'm very impressed with it overall. It's a bit pricey for how simplistic it is, but it doesn’t feel or look cheap. Assembly and installation with the provided hardware was easy with help of a drill. The shelves are deep and work well for storage baskets and larger items. It’s a sharp-looking piece that really improved the look of our expanded coffee bar.

Wonderful shelf but difficult to install!
Size: 41 Inch Extra Long, Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 41 Inch Extra Long, Color: Rustic Brown
I absolutely love this shelf. It's perfect over our coffee bar and is extremely sturdy. Assembling it was very easy, but hanging it was challenging. The design could definitely use a little improvement. My husband had to order an angles drill adapter to be able to get the screws in. He also bought different anchors than what came with it. But now that it's up it looks fantastic!
