Buy Anthurium pedatum – Rare Tropical Species with Unique Leaf Shape

Anthurium pedatum looks like nature's own abstract sculpture: its deeply lobed, finger-like leaves spread out like an open hand or the claw of a tropical bird. Glossy, leathery, and vibrant green, each leaf is supported by a long, rounded petiole that can reach up to 75 cm in length. In mature specimens, the central lobe may become strongly wavy or even split, adding a wild, untamed elegance to its form. The persistent reddish-brown fiber sheaths from old cataphylls give the plant an added architectural element. With a compact terrestrial growth habit and slow to moderate pace, this species brings structured drama to any indoor collection – without overwhelming the space.

Key Features and Leaf Characteristics

  • Foliage: Glossy, leathery leaves divided into 9 – 13 radiating segments
  • Segment Shape: Central lobe often deeply undulated or even pandurate in large plants
  • Petiole Length: Rounded green petioles up to 75 cm long
  • Growth Habit: Compact, terrestrial, with short internodes (2 – 10 mm)
  • Cataphylls: Up to 20 cm, breaking down into reddish fibers that persist
  • Inflorescence: Lanceolate yellow-green spathe and hanging purple or green spadix; rare in cultivation

Native Range and Growth Context

In the wild, Anthurium pedatum grows terrestrially in moist montane forests across Colombia and neighboring Andean regions, between 350 and 2100 m elevation. These areas experience stable temperatures between 18 – 27 °C and consistently high humidity. The plant thrives in nutrient-rich, well-draining soils under dense forest canopy. Its thick stems (2 – 6 cm wide) and compact, slowly clumping habit make it well suited for indoor growing. All parts of the plant are toxic to humans and pets if ingested.

How to Care for Anthurium pedatum

  • Light: Bright, indirect light; no harsh sun
  • Watering: Water when the top 10 – 15% of substrate feel dry; avoid standing water
  • Humidity: 60 – 80% ideal; avoid prolonged low humidity
  • Temperature: Prefers 18 – 27 °C; protect from drafts
  • Substrate: Loose, well-draining mix with bark, coconut, and perlite
  • Repotting: Every 2 – 3 years or when pot is fully rooted
  • Fertilizing: Every 4 – 6 weeks using diluted foliage plant fertilizer
  • Hydroponics: Can be grown in mineral substrates like Pon or semi-hydro setups
  • Propagation: Through rhizome division or clump separation during repotting
  • Pruning: Remove old or damaged leaves as needed

Common Issues and What to Do

  • Yellowing leaves: Usually due to overwatering or poor drainage
  • Brown leaf tips: Often caused by low humidity or salt buildup
  • Drooping leaves: Could indicate dehydration or root disturbance
  • Spots or blemishes: May occur after cold shock or fungal exposure
  • Pests: Occasionally affected by spider mites, mealybugs, or thrips – use neem oil or insecticidal soap

Additional Insights

This species appreciates consistency. While it doesn’t require a support pole, older plants benefit from gentle staking. Understanding how Anthurium pedatum grows in its native Andean cloud forests – under a protective canopy with steady warmth and humidity – will help you replicate those conditions at home. Mimicking its natural environment isn’t just about care, it’s about unlocking the full potential of its foliage structure and growth rhythm.

Name Origin and Botanical Background

The genus name Anthurium derives from the Greek "anthos" (flower) and "oura" (tail), referring to the prominent spadix. The species name "pedatum" comes from Latin "pedatus," meaning "foot-like," describing the lobed, radiating leaf shape. Originally described as Pothos pedatus, the plant was validly published by Carl Sigismund Kunth in 1841.

Still soft but looks terrible after 1 wash. Save your money
Color: White, Size: Small, Color: White, Size: Small
Update: sweater looked great when I received. After 1 wash it looks terrible. Looks like it’s been washed too many times, material fuzzy and piled. After wearing it once, it snagged and the knit pulled through. I would NOT recommend. I had such high hopes. Save your money. Very nice sweater, especially for the price! I love the details of the buttons on the sleeves. It is SO soft. It’s not super thick as I can see my skin through it when pressing my hand up against fabric. However, it’s not see through when wearing it. It’ll be perfect in cooler weather and perfect in the winter with a coat but won’t cause me to overheat when in a heated environment. I do feel like it runs big. I could have sized down a size. Although I’m not sure if it’ll shrink after a wash or two.

Disappointed.
Color: Blue, Size: Large, Color: Blue, Size: Large
This sweater is so comfortable and very soft. It fits well in a flattering, oversized way. But after one wash it is pilled everywhere which makes it look old and shabby. It’s at a price point where I feel compelled to return it.

Perfect for casual wear and dressy style
Color: Dark Green, Size: Small
This sweater is soooo soft and the color is so rich. The fit of it is perfect, not too tight and not too baggy, just right and I used the size guide to pick my size. Just for reference, I am 5'3" and 130lbs, 38C bust. It's well made and washes great. I chose to hang dry mine as I typically don't put any of my sweaters in the dryer to dry, just to fluff them. I have this one in two colors, the green and the tan/beige and I would say they are both a true representative of the color shown.

Love the long sleeves!!!
Color: White, Size: Small
Love it! I'm 5' 11" tall and I purchased this according to reviews. Several people commented on the length of the sleeves. I have a hard time finding sleeves long enough if it's not " tall" sized. It was perfect for me. If this washes nice I'm going to consider purchasing more in other colors. I ordered the white and just love the long ribbed cuffs with the line of buttons. Very soft.

Nice cozy sweater, but handwashing is recommended

Soft and cozy, but does not wash well. Goes with everything. This sweater fits well and looks great. I received lots of compliments while wearing it.
