Anthurium Veitchii, often called "King Anthurium," is known for its large, corrugated leaves that can reach over a meter in length.

Anthurium Veitchii was discovered in the humid rainforests of Colombia and Ecuador. Named after John Veitch, a prominent 19th century British botanist, it quickly became a favorite among plant collectors worldwide. Its grand appearance and relatively easy care have made it a popular ornamental plant in both homes and botanical gardens.

Care: Plant your Anthurium Veitchi in an airy and well-drained soil mix that mimics its natural habitat, such as our aroid soil , a mix of orchid bark, sphagnum and perlite. This plant thrives best in bright but indirect lighting and requires high humidity to develop optimally. Water regularly, but make sure the soil is allowed to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent root problems.
