Anthurium peltigerum

Anthurium peltigerum is an unusual foliage Anthurium with peltate leaves, meaning the petiole attaches underneath the blade, inside the leaf outline. This gives the leaves a shield-like outline and a distinctive vein pattern, with strong basal veins running outward through the blade.

The plant grows as an epiphytic Anthurium and can develop broad, rounded leaves as it sizes up. Mature blades are green, firm and strongly patterned by radiating veins and parallel tertiary venation, with a shield-like form that shows clearly from above.

Fast-scan traits on Anthurium peltigerum

  • Growth habit: Epiphytic Anthurium with a strong root system and broad leaves.
  • Leaf attachment: Peltate blades with the petiole attached beneath the leaf surface.
  • Venation: Basal veins travel toward the apex, with many parallel tertiary veins between them.
  • Blade character: Firm green foliage with a shield-like profile.
  • Origin: Native from southwestern Colombia to Ecuador, with Andean Colombian records.

Peltate leaf form and Andean habitat

Anthurium peltigerum is native from southwestern Colombia to Ecuador and is recorded as an epiphytic herb in wet tropical conditions. Colombian records place it in Andean regions at roughly 950–2100 m elevation, where moisture, airflow and an open root zone occur together.

The peltate blade gives the species its distinctive shape. Because the petiole joins the leaf from beneath, the veins radiate differently from cordate Anthuriums. As the plant matures, each leaf shows more shield-like geometry, especially with consistent moisture and enough light for firm petioles.

Care for Anthurium peltigerum

  • Light: Grow in bright filtered light. Strong, indirect light allows larger leaves to develop and a sturdier petiole-to-blade connection.
  • Watering: Keep the mix lightly moist, then water again once the upper layer has begun to dry. The epiphytic roots need oxygen between waterings.
  • Substrate: Use a coarse Anthurium mix with bark, coco chips, perlite, pumice and a little sphagnum or fine organic material for moisture retention.
  • Root space: A deep, airy pot or basket-style setup gives the thick roots room and reduces compaction around the base.
  • Humidity: Aim for 60–80% relative humidity with airflow. The broad blades benefit from stable humidity while expanding.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, ideally 20–28 °C. Cooler nights should stay mild and the substrate should drain quickly.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth. Large leaves need steady nutrition, but high salt levels can damage roots and margins.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots are tight or the mix has degraded. Refresh the substrate before it turns dense around the epiphytic roots.
  • Handling: Hold the blade and petiole when moving the plant. Peltate leaves can be stressed where the petiole meets the blade.
  • Propagation: Divide only established plants with multiple growth points. Keep divisions warm and evenly moist while roots re-establish.

Common issues on Anthurium peltigerum

  • Weak petioles: Check exposure level and root health. Large peltate blades need enough energy and a strong root system to hold well.
  • Yellowing after watering: Inspect the substrate for compaction. Epiphytic roots decline quickly when air spaces collapse.
  • Dry or torn new leaves: Stabilise humidity and reduce physical contact while the blade is expanding.
  • Brown spotting: Improve airflow and keep foliage drier overnight. Warm, wet leaf surfaces can encourage bacterial or fungal problems.
  • Stalled growth: Review warmth, light and root space before increasing fertiliser. This species often sizes up gradually.

Anthurium peltigerum growing notes

Anthurium peltigerum often shows its peltate attachment before it reaches mature blade size. With age, the spacing between leaves, petiole length and vein pattern become more pronounced.

Anthurium peltigerum safety notes

Anthurium peltigerum should be kept away from children and animals that may chew foliage or stems. Anthuriums contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth, lips, tongue, throat, skin and eyes. Use clean tools and wash hands after cutting or dividing the plant.

Anthurium peltigerum name background

The accepted botanical name is Anthurium peltigerum Sodiro, in the family Araceae. The genus name Anthurium is formed from Greek words for “flower” and “tail”, referring to the spadix. The species epithet peltigerum refers to the peltate, shield-bearing leaf form that gives this species its distinctive outline.

Anthurium peltigerum develops shield-like peltate leaves with radiating veins, firm green blades and epiphytic root growth.

This Bag Is Unbelievable - Serious Business
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
I’m a self-admitted bag enthusiast, and this one genuinely surprised me. I wasn’t familiar with the brand, but the quality is immediately apparent. The leather is soft yet substantial, giving it a premium feel without seeming fragile or flimsy. The stitching is impeccable, and the front and back are cleanly designed with no unnecessary frills—just a timeless, well-constructed silhouette. It’s the kind of bag that people notice, whether you’re carrying it or someone sees it from across the room. The strap was neatly packaged inside, and everything arrived in perfect condition. I looked it over carefully and couldn’t find a single flaw. In my opinion, this is a near-perfect everyday bag and an impressive value for the quality. *** Photos are front of bag (same as back), side of bag & bottom of bag. As you can see the stitching, as well as everything else, is quite impressive. Love this bag!

Gorgeous Color!
Color: Coffee, Color: Coffee
I am very happy with the color of this purse the inside pockets and zipped pockets, a total of 4, allows for neat organization of all my items such as phone, cosmetics, sunglasses, tissues, perfume, mints and etc... I love the gun metal colored hardware. The zippers move smoothly. The crossbody strap is long enough for my 6' frame and sits right at my hip when I use the last buckle hole. All the stitching is complete and tight. Speaking of stitching, I removed a star because the inside pockets are sewn on and shows on the back of the purse. I don't like having to check if my purse is facing the right way. For the price of this purse the stitching should not be showing. The interior lining is a cloth-like fabric. The inside zipped pockets are full size and lay on top of each other. This is different from what I've seen in other purses. When the purse is full, the top pocket slightly covers the main compartment bottom from view. I will be sure to put something somewhat flat in that pocket to avoid this. There is no offensive odor from shipping. Because of the stitching issue, I cannot recommend to others without point this out.

Doctor Doctor-give me the news!!! This purse is…
Color: Black, Color: Black
Amazing!!! This is an updated review because the seller sent me a replacement. I use this bag for photography. It’s easy to reach into and set down as needed. There’s room for one body and two lenses and multiple accessories. I use a wrist grip and do street photography. I don’t like to carry my camera around my neck and draw attention. This bag is perfect for keeping my camera in between shots. The bags interior is super soft and the leather itself on the outside feels high-quality and is stitched very well. Being footed is an extra great quality so that I feel confident setting it down. The extra long strap is great, as a large bag like this needs to be worn as a crossbody for most people I upgraded to a wide strap for the weight of my camera system. I always update my reviews in a year. So I will come back and let you know how it’s holding up! (Old review) ***********Arrived with someone else’s complaint already prepared for me! What an entrance!! She was right, the tag and bag don’t match. It is the bag I ordered but…. VERY VERY DAMAGED!!! For this much money, where is the quality control? Someone else’s return, and multiple gauges throughout the leather of the bag? I uploaded about 5 different places where the leather is gauged-and then stopped photographing. Sadly, I think this is a good bag - a bit overpriced, and small, the zipper is iffy as well but clearly the bag isn’t a keeper in this condition. Shame on the seller.

Versatile small tote
Perfect for use as a larger purse or a small tote. I carry a very minimalist/tiny purse, so this bag is the perfect day bag for me. Fits my purse, water bottle, tablet, sunglasses, and pretty much whatever else I need to throw in. I was pleasantly surprised by how well designed the interior of this bag is in terms of different compartments/pockets to organize your stuff. The canvas fabric is substantial. I have machine washed it (in a lingerie bag and then and dried flat) and it came out great. I would absolutely buy again (and will if it’s still available when my current one wears out!).
