Few plants command a room quite like a mature Anthurium vittarifolium. Its leaves are extraordinarily long, narrow, and pendant, hanging vertically from the plant like green ribbons. In ideal conditions, they can reach well over a metre in length, creating a cascading curtain of foliage that looks as dramatic mounted on a wall as it does in a hanging planter. It also produces clusters of vivid red berries along a drooping spadix, adding further interest. This is a statement Anthurium loved by many collectors.

Origins
Native to the tropical rainforests of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil, Anthurium vittarifolium grows as an epiphyte high in the canopy. Its pendant leaf habit is an adaptation to its elevated position, allowing leaves to hang freely rather than compete for horizontal space.

Soil and Substrate
As an epiphyte, Anthurium vittarifolium needs an exceptionally open, fast-draining substrate. Our Anthurium Premium Potting Mix is peat-free and formulated for epiphytic Anthuriums: bark, charcoal, coco husk, lava rock, and pumice for long-lasting structure and root aeration.
