Anthurium wendlingeri – The Tropical Waterfall

Discover Anthurium wendlingeri, a rare tropical aroid with cascading leaves. Perfect indoor plant for collectors seeking exotic foliage and easy care.

The Anthurium wendlingeri is a rare and striking epiphytic species known for its long, cascading foliage and dramatic, twisted inflorescence that resembles a tropical waterfall. Native to the rainforests of Central America, this unique anthurium features leathery, pendant leaves that can grow several feet long, making it a stunning statement plant in any collection.

Unlike many of its upright cousins, Anthurium wendlingeri thrives when mounted or allowed to hang, showcasing its elegant, trailing form. It’s a favorite among collectors for its coiled, corkscrew-like spadix and its low-maintenance, humidity-loving nature.

Why It's Special:

• Rare, trailing species perfect for hanging displays or mounted setups
• Extra-long, strappy leaves with a bold, architectural look
• Unique, spiral inflorescence that's both botanical and sculptural
• Epiphytic growth habit—ideal for moss boards, hanging baskets, or well-aerated pots

Care Instructions:

• Light: Bright, indirect light
• Water: Keep soil lightly moist; allow slight drying between waterings
• Humidity: Loves 60–80% humidity
• Soil: Epiphytic or chunky aroid mix; prefers excellent drainage
• Fertilizer: Monthly during active growth with diluted balanced fertilizer

Add a sense of wild rainforest elegance to your space with the Anthurium wendlingeri—a must-have for aroid enthusiasts who crave the extraordinary.
