anthurium pedato Anthurium pedatoradiatum

anthurium pedato Anthurium pedatoradiatumAnthurium pedatoradiatum originates from southern Mexico. It is a member of the section Schizoplacium, which is characterized by leaves that are more or less deeply divided. In A. pedatoradiatum, the leaf is not completely divided (ssp. pedatoradiuatum ), but rather the individual leaflets are fused at the base (resulting in a "foot shaped" appearance, hence the species name). The up to 13 leaflets are about 30 cm long, and the entire leaf is about 33

Anthurium pedatoradiatum originates from southern Mexico. It is a member of the section Schizoplacium, which is characterized by leaves that are more or less deeply divided. In A. pedatoradiatum, the leaf is not completely divided (ssp. pedatoradiuatum ), but rather the individual leaflets are fused at the base (resulting in a "foot-shaped" appearance, hence the species name). The up to 13 leaflets are about 30 cm long, and the entire leaf is about 33 cm long and up to 60 cm wide. The species grows on limestone rocks and cliffs, mostly terrestrially, and often together with Anthurium clarinervium in rather dry habitats. It is an upright, non-climbing species. A. pedatoradiatum reaches a height of about 1.2 m.

There is another subspecies, ssp. helleborifolium , which remains smaller and in which the leaves are sometimes divided all the way to the base. However, we only offer the larger (and in our opinion, more beautiful) subspecies pedatoradiatum here.



This species is surprisingly robust and easy to care for. Its tough leaves are particularly striking. It grows quite quickly at sufficiently high temperatures and is hardy, making it very suitable for beginners!
