Anthurium plowmanii

Anthurium plowmanii is a large, broad-leaved Anthurium with a bird’s-nest-style habit and leathery green foliage. It forms a spreading rosette of substantial leaves from a compact centre.

This species is native from Peru to Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraguay, where it grows as an epiphyte or lithophyte in seasonally dry tropical biome. Its root zone needs warmth and a chunky substrate that can approach lightly dry at the upper layer between thorough waterings.

Broad rosette leaves and airy roots

  • Leaf shape: Leaves are broad, leathery and elliptic to obovate, with a firm surface and a substantial petiole.
  • Growth habit: The plant develops as a short-stemmed rosette with broad leaves arranged from a compact centre.
  • Root style: Epiphytic and lithophytic growth suits coarse substrate that drains quickly after watering.
  • Origin: The species is native from Peru to Brazil, Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraguay.
  • Substrate preference: A bark-rich, chunky mix keeps the pot from staying dense and wet after watering.
  • Pot balance: Mature leaves can make the plant top-heavy, so a stable pot is important.

Rosette development and pot balance

The broad leaves of Anthurium plowmanii rise from a compact centre, creating the rounded form often associated with bird’s-nest Anthuriums. The foliage is thick enough to handle brief drying at the upper substrate layer, while the root zone still needs a loose, airy structure that drains well after each watering.

Because the plant carries large leaves on firm petioles, pot stability matters more than tight root confinement. A heavy nursery pot or decorative outer pot can keep the rosette upright, especially as new leaves increase the plant’s spread.

Root-zone care for Anthurium plowmanii

  • Substrate: Use a chunky aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre and mineral drainage material.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly, then let the upper part of the mix approach lightly dry before watering again.
  • Pot balance: Use a stable pot as the rosette widens and the firm petioles carry more weight.
  • Light: Place it in bright filtered light. Hot direct sun can scorch broad leaf surfaces.
  • Crown care: Keep stale water from collecting in the centre of the rosette, especially during cooler periods.
  • Temperature: Keep it warm. Cold, wet substrate around thick roots can lead to decline.
  • Humidity: Average to moderately high humidity keeps new leaves expanding smoothly, especially in warm conditions.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly at low strength during active growth.

Troubleshooting Anthurium plowmanii

  • Yellow lower leaves: Persistent wetness in an ageing mix can reduce root oxygen and trigger yellowing.
  • Brown margins: Check for hard drying, salt build-up, hot sun or irregular watering.
  • Crown stress: Water sitting in the rosette during cool conditions can damage young tissue.
  • Unstable growth: A top-heavy rosette may wobble if the pot is too light or the root ball is disturbed.
  • Pests: Inspect the base of the rosette, leaf undersides and petiole junctions for scale, thrips and mealybugs.

Safety around pets and children

Anthurium plowmanii should be kept away from pets and children. Its tissues contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation if chewed or swallowed. Wear gloves if your skin reacts to aroid sap.

Name and species background

Anthurium plowmanii is an accepted Anthurium species described by Thomas B. Croat and published in 1987. It was named for botanist Timothy Plowman. The species combines a broad rosette with epiphytic or lithophytic root behaviour and a seasonally dry tropical range.

Over time, Anthurium plowmanii builds a broad rosette of firm green leaves carried from a compact central crown.

Good quality with an even better price for all the items you get
Color: Black, Size: 8 Years, Color: Black, Size: 8 Years
A little large/long but good quality. I think my son is pretty average sized for an 8 year old. My fault for getting it last minute so we didn’t have time to get it fitted. The quality was better than expected especially for the price. He told me he was super comfortable in it so that was the biggest win! Shirt not included and he took his jacket off for the picture.

Colour and Sizing are good
Color: Dark Green, Size: 6 Years, Color: Dark Green, Size: 6 Years
Very nice material. Sizes are accurate. I love it. I bought size 6 for my 7 year old son ( he's a little on the smaller size) and Size 12 for my 10 year old ( he's tallish and skinny) because I want them to last a few years.

Good Suit for 8th grade formal
Color: Black, Size: 16 Years
Great suit fit true to size. Come with suspenders and tie although the tie is one size so I think it’s the same size regardless of the suit size. Quality material held up to ironing and the washing machine.

A nice surprise
Color: Black, Size: 14 Years
I really liked the feel of the material it was made with, the added kerchief already stitched into the pocket of the jacket and into the pocket of the vest it's , I feel a very good value. The jacket fit really great on my grandson the pants fit amazing and hung perfect I got the size I ordered and it was exactly what I expected it to be. And I really can't say enough about the jacket the way it fit him the way it hung but it said down to his wristbone so when he reached out it's not too short and I feel the biggest plus a lot of times in kids suits the lapels they just don't look proportioned properly, the jacket really looked great I really feel like I got more than and my money's worth and I think it was a really amazing value

Super fast next day shipping. Great fit good quality. This is going to be perfect for his sister‘s wedding. 5 foot tall, His measurements are 26 inches waist and inseam is also 26 inches. We purchased the size 16 youth. The pants are a little long and the waist was a little big. We probably could have gone for the size 14.
