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.

Inkjets have come a long way
Pattern Name: Printer, Style: ET-15000
Just a lot to like about this printer and nothing I don't like. Very capable for the price. I do mostly black and white printing, rarely print photos. (This will supposedly do a credible job of photo printing too but I haven't tried it). If you want professional caliber photo printing, you probably want the Epson 8550 which is similar to this, a bit more expensive, but does 6 color printing. If you are doing more like every day business printing the 15000 might be a better choice because it's built more for speed. The tank system means I can just replace the black because I use it a lot. The black ink tank is double size of the others and based on my experience so far, I think I'll easily get over a thousand pages on the standard-vivid setting which is very strong black but still relatively high speed printing. Given that the black ink bottles are under $30 I think the cost per page will be comparable to laser. The booklet/pamphlet printing can be complicated to work out with layers of PDF software and the Epson printer driver. But once you work it through, it's super capable. I've printed a lot of 12 x 18 double-sided for booklets and the paper handling has been flawless. (It can duplex automatically for 8 1/2 x 11 but for other sizes you have to manually duplex, which you can do by printing back/front or even/odd.) It's not as fast as a laser printer but it's pretty fast -- inkjets have improved so much.

Perfect Printer for My Small Business
Pattern Name: Printer, Style: ET-15000
I purchased the Epson ET-15000 for my crafting and apparel business and have been very pleased with its performance. The print quality is excellent, colors are vibrant, and the large ink tanks help save money over time. It handles larger print sizes with ease and has become an essential part of my workspace.

Nice large format printer which is what I needed
Pattern Name: Printer, Style: ET-15000
I make stained glass panels and needed a printer that I could make larger copies with. I also wanted one that I could manipulate my images with. This was my best option and I love the Eco-Tank printers. After reading the reviews I made sure to add a couple years of additional warranty for my peace of mind. Finding 13 x 19 paper that was affordable was a tough challenge. I found a bunch on FB marketplace and bought everything they had to offer. This printer was very easy to set-up. I just followed the instructions and then followed what was on my computer screen. At first I thought I would have an issue connecting to Wi-Fi but when it failed on the computer, I was able to go to the printer and do it from the control panel - Easy peesey. I have used it several times since filling, charging, and installing and everything works as it should. My husband has an Eco-Tank printer and I've wanted one since he got his. I love that the ink will last a very long time and that it will be cost efficient. I am not overly interested in photo printing so this was the perfect choice for my needs. The print quality is fairly good when comparing it to my old Canon and e that there are several paper trays and ways to make copies, especially the automatic feed and the larger scanner bed.
