Anthurium veitchii, often called the “King Anthurium,” is native to the rainforests of Colombia, where it grows as an epiphyte attached to trees. Known for its massive, corrugated leaves that can grow several feet long, this plant makes a dramatic statement in any collection. Because of its size and unique texture, it has become a favorite among rare plant enthusiasts who enjoy bold foliage. Its natural growth habit in the forest canopy gives us insight into how it prefers to be cared for indoors.
When it comes to light, Anthurium veitchii thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light will slow growth and lead to smaller, weaker foliage. Ideally, place it near an east- or north-facing window, or a few feet back from a south- or west-facing window with filtered light. Grow lights can also be a great option if natural light is limited, especially during darker months. Consistent lighting helps this anthurium produce larger, healthier leaves over time.
In addition to proper lighting, this plant prefers warm, humid conditions and a chunky, well-draining soil mix. Think of a blend similar to orchid or aroid mixes, allowing plenty of airflow to the roots. Keep the soil lightly moist but never soggy, as the roots are prone to rot if overwatered. Pairing the right light with balanced watering and humidity will keep your Anthurium veitchii thriving and displaying the impressive foliage it’s known for.
