Variant

Anthurium Crystallinum, commonly known as the Crystal Anthurium, is a strikingly beautiful species native to the rainforests of Central and South America. It is highly prized for its large, velvety, heart-shaped leaves which are dark green with prominent white venation that gives them a crystalline appearance. These leaves can grow quite large, often reaching up to 2 feet in length when provided with optimal growing conditions. The plant's aesthetic appeal makes it a popular choice for indoor plant enthusiasts and collectors.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

Pro tips

Ensure to keep the Anthurium Crystallinum away from direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn. Maintaining high humidity is key to preventing crispy leaf edges and promoting healthy growth. When watering, ensure to allow excess water to drain away to prevent root rot. Clean the leaves regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and support photosynthesis. Provide a support structure such as a moss pole to mimic its natural climbing habit, which can also encourage larger leaf growth.

Care Guide

How to take care of Anthurium Crystallinum

Sun: Indirect

Anthurium Crystallinum should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Anthurium Crystallinum will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

Anthurium Crystallinum needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: High

Anthurium Crystallinum likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Caution

Anthurium Crystallinum is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.

Plant Story

Introducing the Anthurium Crystallinum, a stunning and elegant houseplant renowned for its luxurious foliage and captivating beauty. This plant not only enhances your indoor space with its exotic presence but also symbolizes hospitality, rare beauty, and the lush richness of tropical forests.

The Anthurium Crystallinum, often referred to as the Crystal Anthurium, features large, heart-shaped leaves that are a deep green with striking, prominent white venation. The contrast between the velvety leaf texture and the crystalline veins gives this plant a dramatic and decorative look, making it a favourite among houseplant enthusiasts and interior decorators alike.

To care for your Anthurium Crystallinum, provide it with bright, indirect light. It thrives under the filtered light of a rainforest canopy in its natural habitat, so direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent scorching its delicate leaves. This requirement for gentle lighting conditions is a reminder that beauty often thrives under protective and nurturing circumstances.

Watering should be consistent, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Anthuriums prefer high humidity and well-draining soil to prevent root rot. You can increase humidity around the plant by placing a humidity tray underneath, using a room humidifier, or regularly misting the leaves.
