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.

Amazing and Fantastic
Format: Hardcover
Without a doubt one of the best books, I have ever read. Follows a holocaust survivor through the deplorable conditions at Auschwitz to the top of the mountain in New Jersey as he becomes the CEO of two significant corporations, an oil company and a bank. Having the wits and wherewithal to stay alive while 59 members of his family were killed by the Nazis and the grit and determination to fight the Federal Reserve was truly amazing. A true hero.

here's what bothers me
Format: Kindle
There's no doubt that Siggi Wilzig was an amazing person. Courageous, tough, persistent, smart and so much more. And there is also no doubt that the Holocaust was the most heinous crime, i.e. genicide in world history. However, I cannot help but wonder if we all continue to cling to our religious beliefs and allow it to separate us from one another, will we ever be able achieve world peace? Siggi talked about gentiles as if there were a different species and his dedication to jewish causes was impressive, but it also concerned me. Wouldn't our world be better off if we cared equally about every race, religion, nationality and such. After all religion is faith. It's NOT fact based. Religious beliefs are impossible to prove. They are simply beliefs and yet mankind continues to identify one another by our race, our religion, our national origin. We are all just human beings with the same wants and needs. YES, let's make sure the world never forgets the horrors of the Holocaust and ensure we don't allow such hatred and mass murder to ever occur again to any people. And yes, there is anti-semitism and white nationalists and rascism and hatred of immigrants or anyone who looks or acts differently from ourselves. But isn't this the cause we should all be trying to overcome. To simply treat one another as we ourselves want to be treated. Not because of our race, our religion or any other factor - but because we are all human beings and we need to be kind to one another. This is the greatest goal we should all be working towards. If there is a God, does he favor one religion over another or one race or country over another? Ask yourself this question. This is the problem I had reading this book and yet, I still have the greatest respect for Siggi Wilzig and found the book quite interesting and highly inspirational.

Starting a business
Format: Kindle
This book explains everything you need to know about starting a business. For example, how to get the funds for it, setting a budget, advertise, using AI, and so much more. My daughter is starting a bakery and this book has been really helpful, but still learning about everything, like the complex concepts, but it is easier with the help of this book.
