Anthurium Pallidiflorum 'Guazhalan'
A locale selection of Anthurium pallidiflorum — the Ecuadorian pendant strap-leaf species — originating from the Guazhalan area of Ecuador and distinguished within the species by its particularly elongated, lanceolate leaves with a smooth, leathery surface texture and prominently expressed parallel venation. The species grows as an epiphyte in the humid cloud forests of Ecuador and Colombia, its extraordinarily long, narrow, velvet-surfaced pendant leaves hanging freely and capable of reaching several feet in length while remaining only a few inches wide. An elevated or hanging position is essential to allow the leaves to hang to their full length.
-
Light: Bright to moderate indirect light; protect the velvet surface from direct harsh sun which bleaches and damages the texture.
-
Soil: Chunky, open epiphytic mix of orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir with excellent drainage; never waterlogged.
-
Temperature/Humidity: Warm temperatures between 64-82°F; high humidity of 60-80% supports the cleanest leaf emergence and best velvet surface quality.
-
Watering: Keep consistently but lightly moist — allow only the top inch to approach dryness between waterings. Never waterlog; never allow to dry out fully.
-
Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during active growth; dilute to half strength. Reduce in winter.

Customers praised this rare plant for arriving in "perfect condition" with healthy foliage and new growth. Shoppers consistently highlighted excellent packaging and quick shipping across long distances. Many noted plants were "bigger than expected."

My package came perfectly wrapped. Shipped very well. Very nice healthy plant.
I am SO SO happy with my pallidiflorum- it is much bigger than anticipated and has a new leaf coming in! Shipped very carefully and came in great ship.
