Anthurium veitchii

Anthurium veitchii, widely known as King Anthurium, is a Colombian epiphytic Anthurium with long, pendant leaves marked by deep, horizontal corrugation. The blades emerge upright and softer, then lengthen and hang as they mature, creating the pleated look that makes this species instantly recognisable.

Growth is centred around a firm crown, with each new leaf adding more length and texture. In a pot, the foliage needs vertical clearance because mature leaves naturally fall below the rim.

Anthurium veitchii leaf character

  • Growth habit: Epiphytic Anthurium with a crown-forming habit and pendant mature foliage.
  • Leaf form: Long, narrow blades that hang downward as they gain size.
  • Surface pattern: Deep transverse corrugation gives the leaves their pleated texture.
  • Colour: Green foliage with a satin to lightly glossy surface, depending on maturity and conditions.
  • Leaf clearance: Raised placement gives mature leaves enough drop space below the pot.

Origin, growth form and container behaviour

Anthurium veitchii is an accepted species in the Araceae family. It is native to Colombia, especially Chocó and Antioquia, and grows in the wet tropical biome as an epiphytic subshrub. Its root system is built for a warm, moist, airy setting, so the substrate should support both hydration and oxygen.

The inflorescence follows the Anthurium spathe-and-spadix form, while the long pleated leaves define the mature plant. As plants mature, the corrugation becomes more pronounced and the blades need more space to hang cleanly.

Care for Anthurium veitchii

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light. Good light produces longer leaves and defined pleating; shield the leaves from direct midday sun.
  • Watering: Water when the top part of the substrate has begun to dry. Keep the root zone lightly moist during active growth, with full drainage after each watering.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre, pumice or perlite. The roots need air pockets throughout the pot.
  • Humidity: Aim for 60–80% humidity for smoother leaf expansion. Higher humidity is especially helpful while a new leaf is unfurling.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, around 20–28 °C. Growth slows in cool conditions, particularly when the substrate remains wet for longer.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly through the growing season. Regular low-dose nutrition allows long leaves to develop better than occasional heavy feeding.
  • Placement: Use a stand, shelf edge or raised pot that allows mature leaves to descend naturally.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the container or the mix has softened. Keep the crown above the substrate surface and avoid compressing the root ball.
  • Leaf handling: Keep expanding leaves away from walls, glass and rough surfaces, as the pleated tissue can mark while still soft.
  • Propagation: Divide mature plants only when separate growth points and strong roots are present.

What to watch on Anthurium veitchii

  • Uneven pleating: Check whether the emerging leaf had enough humidity and space while unfurling.
  • Brown tips: Review watering consistency, humidity and fertiliser strength. Long leaf margins show stress early.
  • Yellow older leaves: Inspect root condition and substrate age. A stale mix can reduce oxygen around the roots.
  • Short, narrow new growth: Increase filtered light gradually and check whether the plant has enough active roots to support larger leaves.
  • Leaf cracking: Give new leaves more clearance and avoid moving the plant while a blade is still expanding.

Anthurium veitchii needs vertical clearance, consistent warmth and an airy root zone. Once mature, the leaves shape the plant’s outline, so placement matters as much as pot size.

Anthurium veitchii safety notes

Anthurium veitchii should be kept away from pets and children that may chew plant material. Like other Anthurium species, it contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and throat if chewed or swallowed. Keep it away from pets and small children, and wash hands after handling damaged tissue.

Anthurium veitchii name background

The accepted botanical name is Anthurium veitchii Mast., in the family Araceae. Anthurium comes from Greek words meaning “flower” and “tail”, referring to the spadix. The epithet veitchii honours the Veitch horticultural name, associated with 19th-century plant collecting and nursery introductions.

Anthurium veitchii develops long pendant leaves with deep horizontal pleats, especially when raised so mature blades can lengthen below the pot.

Cute but run big
Special Size: 7" Inseam with Pockets, Size: X-Large, Color: Flamingo Pink
Color is fantastic. Very naked feeling. Runs big. I’m a size 12/14 and usually wear XL with them sometimes feeling tight. I am pear shaped - 35” waist, 47” hip and these fit but were quite loose in the waist. I might consider sizing down if I wanted to tighter. They would be very a bump-friendly non-maternity option

Love these!!!
Special Size: 7" Inseam without Pockets, Size: Large, Color: Ocean Blue
Super happy with these shorts!!! Wore them on a full day at the theme park. Stayed in place and did not ride up. No pinching or constricting. The material is buttery soft and the blue is so vibrant and pretty!! Don’t show every bump and imperfection, but does show some. It’s not totally smoothing. Very work out friendly, heat friendly, running errands friendly. Would definitely recommend and plan to buy other colors. Comfy waist band as well.

Excellent Work-out & Biking Short
Special Size: 7" Inseam without Pockets, Size: Small, Color: Ocean Blue
I love these biker shorts. They have just the right amount of lycra and they are super soft. They are true to size, and they fit perfectly on my 5'2", 125-pound frame. I purchased them for use in bike riding, and I am very pleased with the fit and stretch. The inseam length is perfect for bike riding, and the legs don't ride up my thigh. The only con to all the pros is there isn't a phone pocket. I ride my bike around town, and I would have liked to have a pocket for my phone when going inside a store. These shorts are well worth the price. I purchased three different colors and love them all. I would definitely purchase this item again.

Cute but could use some pockets
Special Size: 6" Inseam Contrast Trim without Pockets, Size: Small, Color: Navy/White
Obsessed with these shorts. They are so cute and comfy. They fit true to size and I love that there is a matching top you can buy separately. I feel like the material is pretty thick and I don't have to worry about it being see through. My only complaint is that there are no pockets.
