Anthurium pulcachense

Anthurium pulcachense is a Peruvian Anthurium with narrow dark green leaves, a softly subvelvety upper surface and deep rose-pink cataphylls around new growth. The elongated blades are held on upright petioles and show their texture best in filtered light.

The species comes from San Martín, Peru, near Pulcache, at 630–950 m elevation in Premontane wet forest. In cultivation, it should be treated as a warm, humidity-loving terrestrial Anthurium with dense roots, a short stem and a need for steady moisture in an airy substrate.

Narrow leaves, rose cataphylls and Peruvian habitat

  • Leaf shape: Blades are narrowly ovate and cordate to subcordate, with an elongated outline.
  • Leaf surface: The upper leaf surface is dark green and subvelvety, while the underside is paler and matte.
  • Cataphylls: New growth is wrapped by deep rose-pink cataphylls that can remain visible around the stem.
  • Petioles: The petioles are sharply triangular-winged, adding detail beyond the leaf blade itself.
  • Growth habit: The species has a short erect stem, short internodes and dense roots.
  • Origin: It comes from wet premontane forest near Pulcache in San Martín, Peru.

Short-stemmed growth and dense roots

Anthurium pulcachense develops from a short stem with closely spaced growth and dense roots. Its leaves are held erect to spreading, with narrow blades that show a dark upper surface and a paler, matte underside. Deep rose-pink cataphylls wrap new growth around the short stem.

The dense root zone should stay evenly moist and warm, with enough coarse material that water drains through the pot and air returns around the roots after watering.

Wet-forest care for Anthurium pulcachense

  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps new leaves and cataphylls open smoothly, especially while growth is soft.
  • Watering: Keep the substrate lightly and evenly moist, watering before the root ball dries hard.
  • Substrate: Use an airy, moisture-retentive aroid mix with bark, fibre and mineral drainage material.
  • Light: Give bright filtered light. Direct sun can mark the subvelvety leaf surface and dull the dark green surface.
  • Stem care: Keep the short stem above compacted wet substrate so the base stays firm and oxygen reaches the roots.
  • Temperature: Keep it consistently warm. Cold stress can slow new growth and damage wet roots.
  • Leaf care: Clean leaves gently and avoid polishing products, which can mark or clog the softly textured surface.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Excess fertiliser can leave residue on roots and leaf surfaces.

Leaf and cataphyll issues

  • Stuck cataphylls: Dry air can cause new growth to catch before the leaf expands fully.
  • Distorted leaves: Low humidity, root stress or pest damage can affect narrow new blades while they are still soft.
  • Yellowing leaves: Stale wet substrate around dense roots can lead to root stress and yellow foliage.
  • Dull leaf surface: Direct sun, mineral residue or rough cleaning can mark the subvelvety upper side.
  • Slow recovery: Chilling can pause growth for a long period, especially if the substrate is wet.

Handling safety for Anthurium pulcachense

Anthurium pulcachense contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and should not be placed where pets or small children can chew it. Contact with sap can irritate sensitive skin, so wash your hands after pruning or handling damaged tissue.

Locality and name background

Anthurium pulcachense is an accepted species described by Thomas B. Croat and published in Novon in 2008. The species comes from San Martín, Peru, near Pulcache, and the name refers to that locality. Its documented habitat is Premontane wet forest at 630–950 m elevation.

New growth on Anthurium pulcachense combines narrow dark leaves with rose-pink cataphylls around a short, dense-rooted stem.

Very gentle, yet effective
Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
These are a great bang for your buck! My daughter struggles with her sensitive skin. These make up wipes are so soft and feels like a gentle clothe. No obnoxious smells, and resealable. Perfect for traveling. Her skin feels great after wiping off the most stubborn water proof make up. The price makes it a no brainer!

Gentle but very effective in removing all types of makeup
Size: 25 Count (Pack of 1)
I had been using a different brand of make up remover towelettes for years until one day I opened up a new pack and my eyes swelled up and my skin looked burned around my eyes . A waited a few days & tried it again and same thing - only worse . It seems that the manufacturer changed the formula ( why manufacturers insist on fixing something when it’s not broken is beyond me ). Anyway , I googled and read up on all kinds of make up remover towelets and took note that the Simple Kind to Skin seemed to have the best reviews . I tried them and have been using them ever since . They are non greasy which I love , extremely gentle on the skin but excellent on removing makeup even stubborn waterproof mascara . And they don’t dry out your skin . Good product . Note to manufacturer : please do not EVER change this formula .

Simple, durable, and a great buy for active dogs. 🐕🎾
Size: 3 PCS, Size: 3 PCS
These are exactly what I look for in a simple dog toy. The balls are made from a durable rubber material that feels sturdy enough for regular play, while still having enough give to be safe and comfortable for dogs to carry in their mouths. They bounce well, are easy to throw, and have held up nicely during play sessions. I also like the bright colors. The orange, blue, and yellow make them easy to spot in grass, at the park, or in the backyard, which means less time searching and more time playing. The textured surface gives dogs something easy to grip, and the size works well for medium to larger dogs. They feel much more substantial than the bargain-bin tennis balls that seem to fall apart after a few outings. Perhaps the best part is the value. For the price, getting three durable rubber balls is a great deal. Dog toys can get expensive quickly, and this set provides a lot of entertainment without costing much. Overall, these are durable, colorful, fun, and appear safe for everyday play. Combined with the very reasonable price point, they represent an excellent value for dog owners.

Really rough and tough and able to endure some pretty gnarly chewing!
Size: 3 PCS
These are some really stout, durable, tuff balls that are designed to endure some pretty rough chewers! They don't have the best bounce capability. If you throw one down onto pavement, it's not going to bounce back to you the same way a tennis ball would. It's probably got about half the comeback as a tennis ball, so to get the same return you would have to throw it about twice as hard as you would a tennis ball. But the balls were not designed to bounce around, they were designed to throw to your dog and play fetch and be able to endure some pretty rough gnawing and chewing while your dog is returning the ball to you. I have a 30 lb westie, and these balls are pretty much the perfect size for his medium size chomper. He is able to pick the ball up and carry it around with great ease, he is able to catch it in the air with no problem. Now my little 12 lb chihuahua is not able to carry the ball around, his mouth is just too small too be able to pick the ball up. In my opinion the asking price for these balls is really fair and reasonable! I would absolutely recommend this product to my friends and family!!
