Anthurium Veitchii King 6" Pot
Overview:
The Anthurium Veitchii, commonly known as the King Anthurium, is a majestic and highly sought-after plant, famous for its long, rippled leaves that can reach impressive lengths. Native to the tropical rainforests of South America, this Anthurium is a true showstopper, with its large, elongated, and heavily textured leaves giving it a regal appearance. The dark green, glossy foliage adds an elegant and exotic touch to any indoor space, making it a must-have for plant collectors and enthusiasts looking to add a dramatic and rare plant to their collection.
Light/Water Requirements:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while low light may slow down growth and reduce its signature rippling effect.
- Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. The Anthurium Veitchii King prefers moist, well-draining soil, and it’s essential to avoid waterlogging. This plant thrives in high humidity, so regular misting is beneficial.
Size Information:
- Comes in a 6" pot, but with time and proper care, this plant can grow leaves up to 3-4 feet in length, making it a striking focal point in any indoor garden.
- The elongated, rippled leaves create a lush, tropical look, ideal for larger spaces where its bold foliage can be fully appreciated.
Ideal for:

- Perfect for plant collectors who are looking for an extraordinary, eye-catching tropical plant to add to their collection.
Care Tips:
- Rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even growth and prevent it from leaning toward the light.
- Mist the plant regularly or place it near a humidifier, as this Anthurium thrives in higher humidity environments.
- Wipe the leaves occasionally to keep them free of dust and maintain their glossy appearance.
