Anthurium sp. Napo

Anthurium sp. Napo is a rare, as-yet undescribed anthurium collected from the Napo region of Ecuador, offering collectors the chance to grow a plant still on the fringes of taxonomy. Foliage is broad, leathery, and deeply coloured, with the exact form and habit varying slightly between individual plants, adding to the collector’s appeal. Because this is an unidentified species, each specimen carries its own subtle character.

Origins
Anthurium sp. Napo is native to the humid tropical rainforests of the Napo region in eastern Ecuador, an area of exceptional botanical diversity on the western edge of the Amazon basin.

Soil and Substrate
Our Anthurium Mix suits this plant well as it is a free-draining blend designed to prevent rot, and still holds the moisture the plant needs for steady growth in its new environment.
