Anthurium vittarifolium is a rare trailing species prized for its long, strappy, pendant leaves that can grow over a meter in length. Native to the rainforests of South America, it’s a dramatic and elegant choice for hanging pots, wall mounts, or plant shelves with room to cascade.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light

• Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves

• Can tolerate lower light but grows slower

💧 Watering

• Water when the top 2–3 cm (1 inch) of soil feels dry

• Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy

• Use rain, filtered, or distilled water to avoid leaf spotting

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

• Thrives in 18–26°C (64–78°F)

• Requires high humidity (70–90%)

• Ideal for greenhouse setups or near humidifiers

🌱 Soil & Pot

• Use a chunky, well-draining mix: orchid bark, sphagnum moss, perlite, charcoal

• A hanging basket or mounted board works well to showcase its natural form

• Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot

🌿 Fertilizer

• Feed monthly during active growth (spring/summer)

• Use a balanced liquid fertilizer, diluted to half strength

• Reduce feeding in cooler months

✂️ Pruning & Propagation

• Rarely needs pruning, but trim damaged or old leaves

• Propagate via stem cuttings with nodes

• Keep cuttings in moist sphagnum moss and high humidity to root

🐾 Pet Safety

• Toxic if ingested – keep out of reach of pets and children
