The Anthurium Villenaorum is a breathtaking, highly sought-after rare aroid native to the rainforests of San Martin, Peru. This stunning collector's plant is celebrated for its lush, velvety, matte-green foliage that feels incredibly soft to the touch. Cutting through that deep green canvas are prominent, crystalline white or silvery veins that give the plant a bold, graphic, and highly structural appearance.

While it shares visual similarities with other popular velvety anthuriums like the Anthurium crystallinum or magnificum, the Villenaorum has a distinct, slightly more elongated, spade-like leaf shape. It is also remarkably adaptable and slightly more forgiving when it comes to humidity, making it an excellent choice for aroid lovers looking to graduate to rarer, more exotic Anthurium species.

Look for the "Winged" Stems! One of the most unique and defining botanical features of the Anthurium Villenaorum is its petioles (the stems that hold the leaves). Rather than being perfectly round, the petioles are distinctly D-shaped or "winged" with flattened, slightly ribbed edges. This is a telltale sign that you have a true Villenaorum!
Velvet Leaf Care: Skip the Misting Because the leaves are covered in fine, microscopic hairs that create that luxurious velvety texture, you should never mist the foliage directly. Water droplets that sit on fuzzy leaves can easily lead to unsightly fungal spots and bacterial infections. If you need to boost humidity, use a room humidifier instead.
Caution: Toxic to Pets Like all Anthuriums, the Villenaorum contains calcium oxalate crystals. Chewing or ingesting the leaves or stems can cause severe mouth irritation, drooling, and digestive distress in cats, dogs, and humans. Keep this rare beauty safely out of reach of curious pets and toddlers.
☀️

Light

Bright, indirect light is essential. In its natural habitat, this plant grows under the dappled shade of the jungle canopy. An east-facing window or a spot pulled back from a bright south/west window is perfect. Absolutely avoid harsh, direct sunlight; it will instantly bleach the dark green color and scorch the delicate velvety leaves.

💧

Watering

Unlike some houseplants that like to dry out completely, the Anthurium Villenaorum prefers consistent, even moisture. Allow the top 2 to 3 inches of the soil (about 30-50%) to dry out before watering thoroughly. Never let the root ball go bone dry, but equally important, never leave the pot sitting in a saucer of stagnant water, which will cause rapid root rot.

💦

Humidity & Airflow

This tropical species thrives in high humidity (60% to 80%+). It makes a spectacular resident for an indoor greenhouse cabinet or a humid plant room. If your ambient humidity is too low, the edges of the beautiful velvety leaves will turn brown and crispy. Ensure there is gentle airflow around the plant to prevent fungal issues.

🌿

Growing Media

A chunky, highly aerated, fast-draining aroid mix is absolutely critical. Do not use dense, straight potting soil. Create a mix using plenty of medium-to-large orchid bark, coarse perlite, horticultural charcoal, and coco chips, with just a small amount of high-quality potting soil mixed in. The thick, fleshy epiphyte roots need massive amounts of oxygen.

🌾

Feeding

Feed consistently but lightly. Use a balanced, high-quality liquid fertilizer diluted to 1/4 or 1/2 strength every two to four weeks during the active spring and summer growing season. Flushing the soil occasionally with plain water is recommended to prevent mineral salt build-up, which Anthuriums are sensitive to.

Common Issues & Quick Fixes

Crispy, Brown Leaf Edges

This is almost always a sign of insufficient humidity or inconsistent watering. Velvety anthuriums are dramatic about dry air. Invest in a humidifier to bring the ambient moisture up to at least 60%, and ensure you aren't letting the soil dry out completely to the bottom of the pot between waterings.

Brown or Yellow Spots on Leaves

If you see circular brown or yellow spots appearing in the middle of the leaves, it is likely a fungal or bacterial issue caused by water sitting on the velvety foliage. Stop misting the plant immediately, improve the airflow in the room, and keep the leaves completely dry when watering.

Yellowing Lower Leaves

If the oldest leaves are turning yellow and mushy, and the soil feels heavy and dense, you are overwatering or your soil mix isn't chunky enough. The thick roots need to breathe. Ensure your pot has drainage holes and consider repotting into a more aerated orchid-bark-based mix.

” Not so long ago we were sure that such an amazing and beautiful reality must be way off in the ...
Format: Paperback
Eclectic Living? How are you relating right now to Jesus? Did you see the “you” and the “right now?” We’re all different and in different places in our lives, also in the ways we turn to Jesus and trust him. The gospel of Jesus is rich and varied, with so many facets meeting us in our so multiple needs. We have been thinking about our “union with Christ.” Not so long ago we were sure that such an amazing and beautiful reality must be way off in the future, at the end of the chain of our “way of salvation,” the ordo salutis. When we go to heaven without any remaining sin, then we’ll see how all Jesus has done for us comes together, that was how we used to think. Then John Murray and others began to show us how union isn’t at the far end but at the very beginning of new life in Jesus. That means that our forgiveness/justification and our godly growth/sanctification belong together, both gifts from the Jesus to whom we belong. For people who know our theological history that could be alarming though. Wasn’t that what the Reformation 500 years ago was all about? Before, people thought that the main thing was to do the best you can, and then it could be maybe that God would answer that with forgiveness and blessing. But how can you tell when you’re doing enough? The more spiritually alert you were, the less sure. Then came Martin Luther and that breakthrough insight: yes the Lord is holy and you aren’t, but Jesus is! It’s his righteousness that he gives you, and now you can be confident that God is on your side, that when things go wrong it isn’t because he’s mad at you, but probably he’s giving you some kind of “fatherly chastisement.” Isn’t that wonderful, that firm foundation of the Lord’s unfailing love for you! Being totally sure that what we so desperately need right now is right there in the gospel. Isn’t that all we’ll ever need? In some ways it is, but aren’t we still supposed to grow in our godliness? We’re called to love the Lord with all our hearts and our neighbors as ourselves—now that’s not easy, is it? Luther gave us a real start, but we have to add that now we give our hearts to respond to our Lord’s love with whole-hearted life-changing obedience, right? Lutherans tend to want to stick with #1, forgiveness, and we Reformed want the bigger package. But to do that means work, putting together the loving presence of your Jesus and doing those hard things in your life. That’s the history, but where are we right now? Way back when I became a believer, it was about “what if you were to die tonight?” That is, in the next six hours how much change can you pull off? Not much, so dying tonight was totally about forgiveness. Back then there was also a lot of teaching about the end of the world and the suffering that would happen then. Most believed Jesus would take us out of that before it got too bad. Interesting, but what if we haven’t arrived yet at the end? So our combo of “tonight” and “sometime way off,” wasn’t much for “what if I have to get up tomorrow morning,” which so far is what life is about. Sure, people became believers, and were decent afterwards. But did the Jesus gospel really have much to do with their lives? Even if they did their thing and read the Bible every day? Friend Rosemarie tells the world that I have “an eclectic fashion statement.” I really like my bright pink shirt and also my Navaho green bola—so I wear them together. If each is great, then together they have to be stunning, right? Well, they do leave people stunned, eclectically. So here’s a remarkable Biblical doctrine, say justification, and here’s someone struggling with loneliness. Justification has to be the answer, right? Both are important, so don’t they have to fit? Bone up on justification and watch what happens: not much. Loneliness is a lot about not having a clue about relating to people, how does you forgiveness fit that? Eclectic? John Leonard’s Get Real helps. When you’re getting to know a not-yet-believer, what do you talk about? Here’s John’s profound answer: it depends! It depends on what’s so hard for him, you learn that by Listening! Then you bring a piece of the gospel to him, one of the “many facets of the gospel!” That is, something out of your own hard life and how the Lord has been blessing you through it, from some part of what Jesus has done for you. I don’t believe John tells us how many facets there are, he’s still collecting them. John is mostly about not-yets. Now comes David Powlison’s How Does Sanctification Work? He’s about “you, yourself and I.” What’s so hard for you right now? Where is that piece of the Bible that helps you understand and go on to live? Look hard for it, don’t be satisfied with eclectic. That’s going to take prayer and trust in Jesus. Jack Miller taught us to have prayer answered right away: Lord, show me my sin. Now add a David one: show me where I am and how Jesus is there for me. Justification may not be it, don’t look for a cure-all, see how the Lord came in the Bible to people with different lives and gave them exactly what they needed. Talk to other believers too. I’m glad that biblical counseling came along, people and Bible together, Jay! I’m glad that urban ministry also arrived, now we can learn how to think like a missionary by going only a few miles: see how people different from you are blessed through the gospel in ways you never knew; Harvie! Manny! (Underneath all that comes from seeing the culture under the Bible, how it meets people in that mindset or mess or foolishness. Thank you Meredith Kline, Ray Dillard, Dan McCartney and Doug Green). Can we count on preachers to model that for us: they know where their people are, don’t they? They can’t preach to fit all those needs at once, but wouldn’t it work to show the basic How? We all can do better with giving them feedback, right? Those liberals just about invented Eclectic, they could see some need and make up a story about it, not bothering with the Bible. We have to watch that we’re not doing Eclectic the other way around though, doing the Bible right and mumbling about how it works. That’s why the Lord has raised up those questioning millennials for us, making clear that what we’re doing so far isn’t much help. As usual I’m better at spotting the problem than giving the answer. But at least I can give you the beginning: read David’s book!

Great Little Book
Format: Paperback
The title of this book purports to explain to us how sanctification works in the life of a believer. Most people, in American culture at least, will look at this title and expect something of a "how-to" book, filled with bullet points and flowcharts and methods. But Powlison surprises readers by not pinpointing one way of sanctification or one method of growth in holiness but providing instead a broad range of ways God works to grow us into Christlikeness. Powlison is at his best here: succinct, personal, practical and powerful. This book is written as a counter to the "one way of sanctification" teaching we sometimes hear today. For example, some teach all we need to do to be sanctified is to focus on the gospel, rehearse it to ourselves, remember it. Others teach that sanctification comes through spiritual disciplines. But Powlison says there are a variety of ways God changes us and we need them all at different times. Powlison's teaching about Truth Unbalanced and Rebalanced in chapter 3 is worth the price of the book alone. God blessed me through this book. Thank you David Powlison for sharing God's sanctifying work in your life with us.

Well Written
Format: Paperback
A personal account of the author’s suffering paired with other important experiences and Biblical truths. Theologically sound and a quick read. It was not what I was looking for but it was well written, nonetheless.

Wonderful Little Book
Format: Paperback
I actually really love this book. It's short and to the point which takes away a little bit of the theological clutter that you can find in a text book which does limit its content. However, the few points it addresses, lovingly points out incredible truth that we need to hear when helping others, and provides stories which demonstrates his point. The most important passage, in my opinion is, "Ministry 'unbalances' truth for the sake of relevance; theology 'rebalances' truth for the sake of comprehensiveness." (pg.33) Sometimes we want to help people with phrases like, "the lord gives and the lord takes away" or "rejoice always" which is a true fact but could be a dagger in the heart of someone who just lost a wife/husband/child and is breaking down. Either of those statements could calm someone with grief but could also cause anger and bitterness. Some truth can provide immense hope to those in need, but not all truths will help each person the same way and they might respond poorly in a situation of pain. We do a disservice when we assume that all people need the same answers in the same way.
