Anthurium veitchii

Anthurium veitchii grows long pleated leaves that need vertical space as they develop. This Colombian epiphytic Anthurium forms pendant blades with deep horizontal corrugation.

Long petioles carry the leaves out from the centre before the blades descend. A raised position gives the mature leaves room to hang.

Pendant leaves and pleating

  • Long, narrow leaves that hang downward with age
  • Deep horizontal corrugation
  • Crown-forming epiphytic growth
  • Long petioles that hold leaves away from the crown before they drop
  • Mature plants need vertical clearance
  • Fresh leaves are soft and easy to mark

Anthurium veitchii origin

Anthurium veitchii is native to Colombia, especially Chocó and Antioquia, where it grows as an epiphytic subshrub in wet tropical conditions. Its roots need warmth, moisture and an airy mix.

When it flowers, it produces the usual Anthurium spathe and spadix. Mature plants are easy to recognise by their long pleated leaves.

Anthurium veitchii care

  • Light: Bright filtered light supports longer leaves and clearer pleating. Weak light often gives shorter, narrower growth.
  • Watering: Water when the upper substrate begins to dry. Keep the mix lightly moist and let excess water drain fully.
  • Substrate: A coarse aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre and pumice or perlite gives the roots the open spaces they need.
  • Placement: A shelf edge, raised pot or plant stand lets the leaves descend naturally.
  • Temperature: Warm, even conditions support the roots while long leaves are forming.
  • Humidity: Around 60–80% humidity helps new leaves expand and pleat evenly.
  • Feeding: Use light regular feeding during active growth.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the container or the mix has softened. Keep the crown above the mix.
  • Handling: Keep fresh leaves away from walls, glass and rough surfaces while they expand.
  • Propagation: Divide only when a mature plant has separate growth points and strong roots.

Common issues on Anthurium veitchii

  • Uneven pleating: Low humidity or limited space while the leaf unfurls can disturb the pleats.
  • Brown tips: Dry air, irregular watering or strong fertiliser can lead to brown tips.
  • Yellow older leaves: Older leaves can yellow faster if roots stay too wet or the mix has become compact.
  • Short narrow leaves: Short, narrow leaves often mean the plant needs brighter filtered light or stronger roots.
  • Leaf cracking: Give more clearance and keep the plant steady while leaves are expanding.
  • Root decline: Dense wet mix, cool roots and poor drainage are common causes.

Vertical clearance

A raised position lets the leaves lengthen naturally instead of folding against the pot, shelf or furniture.

Safe placement

Keep Anthurium veitchii away from pets and children. The plant contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause mouth and throat irritation if plant material is eaten. Clean your hands after handling cut, broken or damaged tissue.

Name origin

The epithet veitchii honours the Veitch nursery name, linked with 19th-century plant introductions. Anthurium refers to the tail-like spadix.

Soft and Comfortable
Size: 46D, Color: Black
Size 46 D, black. Very Comfortable ! The strap adjustments are in front so it would be easy for someone who needed a caregiver to help them dress. The cups fit well with no gaps or wrinkles and the back lays smoothly, with no irritating seems or crossovers. The chest band is one piece, so no irritating seams, and its a little more supportive than my usual at home or bedtime bras. I tried it on and decided to wear it an hour to see if it stayed comfy while I moved around the house. It was so comfortable I forgot to change it! I ordered the black and when I machine washed it there was no dye bleeding. Hung to dry. Wearing it again and I think it just might become my new favorite. If I still love it, I might purchase another color in next month's shopping budget.

Extremely Comfortable
This bra is the most comfortable bra I have worn. It is so comfortable it doesn't even feel like I am wearing a bra. There are no unfinished seams inside. I like the fact the shoulder straps are hook and eyes that don't slip like the conventional straps. This bra is reasonably priced and nicely made with good support.

DELMIRA BRAS
Size: 36DD, Color: Gentle Rose
I don’t care for this bra whatsoever. The material is very cheap, has no support and in a nutshell, it’s one of those bras you can wear to bed if you’re not feeling comfortable going to bed braless. The price ($19.99) is very high for this bra. It’s definitely not made well or worth the price. I’ll never buy from Delmira again.

The most comfortable bra I’ve ever had
I have been searching for a comfortable bra in my large size that I can just pull on over my head. This bra has so many pluses for my needs! The design and construction are impressive for any price, and the fabric is pleasant on my skin. I’m having shoulder surgery soon and was so pleased to find I can easily unhook (and rehook) a strap to accommodate the surgical site as it heals. Even so, there’s decent support, which was not a concern but is a pleasant surprise. I wish there were more available, especially in soft colors, but at least I have 3.

Shoulder straps uncomfortable
Size: 36E, Color: Beige
I would have given this bra 5 stars if the shoulder straps didn't dig in. The hook adjusters on the shoulder straps are uncomfortable.
