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.

Comfy but only for home use
Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Gray, Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Gray
I love the idea of this dress but my issues with it are as follows... 1. No support for breast at all. The body suit fits great and legs don't ride up but do have to wear a bra if you have more than a b cup. 2. I had to adjust straps to tightest level to avoid gapping. Once you do that you can't get it down to use restroom without loosening straps again. 3. Im pretty sure its meant to be shorter however, im 5ft 3" and it comes to my knees. Not a big deal for me since id rather it be like that. 4. I don't think it will still fit once its washed and dried since it fit perfect now. My measurements are 5ft3",195#, 36ddd, 32" waist and 45" hip. I ordered an xl. 5. It's unusually heavy and shows sweat pretty bad so wouldn't wear for tennis or any other sport. 6. It's designed for much larger breast. Im a 36ddd and it still gaps on me The good part of it is... its super comfy to garden in or wear around the house so I may get one other size/color just for that but not sure id wear it out unless im at a campground lazing about (with a bra). I did order recommended size and fit correctly until its washed. It does also conceal weight but is not overly attractive on curvy women in my opinion

Postpartum Certified!! :)
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I am currently a breast feeding mother who is only 5 weeks post partum. Heading into the summer I needed clothes that fit my changing body and gave me a little confidence that I’ve been lacking recently. This dress has completely done it!! The material is extremely comfortable and not too tight on my body. It’s long enough to give me the coverage that I’m comfortable with but still makes me feel cute. Without knowing how to shop for or what size my body is at after birth, I listened to the comments and got a medium when I was thinking I might be a large and it fits great! Definitely size down though! I will be getting more!!!

Cute beach outfit
Size: Medium, Color: Purple, Size: Medium, Color: Purple
Cute summer lounge outfit. Material is similar to a T-shirt so it's breathable. The shape wear is built in and sturdy and unnoticeable under the dress part. I love the pockets, they easily fit your phone and other items. It's a perfect beach outfit, honestly, and super cute with sandals. I'm 5'7" 168lbs and wearing a size Medium. Not necessarily a con, but something to note: if you're a thick thigh girlie like me, the legs of the shape wear do ride up if you're walking around a lot, so wouldn't recommend if that's something that bothers you.

I LOVE this dress.
Size: Small, Color: Blue
I’m disappointed I cannot wear this every day this summer. Seriously considering buying another in a different color. So comfy. Perfect summer outfit, and so versatile. Great for playground, yard work, pool coverup, etc. I’m 5’4” 130 lbs. Fits true to size and so flattering! Was worried about it being too short, and I can see that being the case for taller ladies, but it’s the perfect length for me!

Very Straightforward and Easy to Use
Reload type: One Time Reload
I have used this several times, and it has always been a smooth and convenient experience. The biggest advantage is how intuitive the process is. Reloading the balance is simple, quick, and easy to understand without unnecessary steps or confusion. It is especially useful for managing spending, setting a shopping budget, or keeping funds ready for future purchases. Instead of entering payment details every time, having balance available makes checkout faster and more convenient. I also appreciate how quickly the funds are applied, allowing immediate use once the reload is completed. This is one of those simple Amazon features that works exactly the way it should. Overall, easy, efficient, and user-friendly. I have been very satisfied with it. Five stars.
