Anthurium polyschistum – The Climbing Anthurium

 🌿✨

Anthurium polyschistum is a rare and elegant climbing aroid with deeply lobed, star-shaped leaves that give it a distinctive tropical look. Unlike the more common heart-leafed anthuriums, this variety grows as a climber, making it a great candidate for moss poles or trellises indoors.

Key Features:

✔ Unique lobed foliage resembling a tropical star shape

✔ Climbing growth habit – perfect for moss poles or trellises

✔ Adds a bold, architectural element to plant displays

✔ Rare and sought-after by aroid collectors

✔ Easy to care for compared to many rare Anthuriums

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – avoid harsh midday sun

• Watering: Keep soil lightly moist, allowing the top 2–3cm to dry before watering

• Humidity: Thrives in high humidity (60%+) – mist regularly or use a humidifier

• Soil: Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix with bark and perlite

• Feeding: Fertilise every 4–6 weeks in the growing season with a balanced feed

• Temperature: Keep between 18–27°C – avoid cold drafts

• Growth: Can grow 1–2m tall with proper support

🌿 Tip: Train the plant up a moss pole to encourage larger leaf development.
