Anthurium warocqueanum – The Queen Anthurium

The Anthurium warocqueanum, often called the Queen Anthurium, is a stunning, rare foliage plant prized for its long, velvety, dark green leaves with striking silver veins. Native to Colombia, this tropical aroid is a high-humidity-loving climber, making it a must-have for serious plant collectors.

Care Guide:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate leaves. A grow light can help maintain optimal conditions indoors.

Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist, but never soggy. Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry. Use filtered or rainwater if possible.

Humidity: Requires high humidity (70–90%) to thrive. Use a humidifier, misting, or place the plant in a terrarium or greenhouse-style setup.

Temperature: Grows best in 18–27°C (65–80°F). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F).

Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining, chunky aroid mix (orchid bark, sphagnum moss, perlite, and charcoal). Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season.

Support: As a climbing plant, it benefits from a moss pole or a trellis to support its long leaves.

General Tips: This species is sensitive to low humidity, root rot, and water quality, so maintaining stable conditions is key.
