Anthurium Polyschistum is a rare and striking aroid known for its long, slender, lance-shaped leaves that cascade elegantly from its base. The glossy, deep green foliage displays a delicate, tropical texture, giving it a graceful, sculptural appearance. Its dramatic, arching leaves make it an exceptional statement plant for collectors and indoor jungle enthusiasts.

 

Care Guide

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate moderate light but avoid direct sunlight, which may scorch the leaves.

  • Water: Keep soil evenly moist but well-draining. Allow the top 1–2 cm to dry slightly between waterings.

  • Humidity: High humidity (60–80%) encourages optimal growth. Mist leaves or use a humidifier if indoor air is dry.

  • Temperature: Thrives in 18–28°C. Protect from drafts and temperatures below 15°C.

  • Soil: Use a well-draining, chunky aroid mix with orchid bark, perlite, or coco coir.

  • Fertilizer: Feed monthly during active growth with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in winter.
