About Anthurium Crystallinum
Anthurium Crystallinum (Anthurium crystallinum) is a velvet-leaf anthurium from Central and South America with large, heart-shaped leaves and bright silver veins. Labijo ships it to US buyers as a rooted cutting or an established plant.
What does Anthurium Crystallinum look like?
The leaves are broad and heart-shaped with a soft, velvety surface. Thick silver-white veins run from the center out to the edges and stand out against the dark green. New leaves often open with a pinkish or bronze tint and darken to green over a couple of weeks.
It is often mixed up with Anthurium clarinervium. Crystallinum leaves are thinner, larger and a little longer than wide, while clarinervium leaves are thick and stiff, almost like cardboard. Compare them with other anthuriums.
How do you care for Anthurium Crystallinum?
- Light: Bright indirect light. No direct sun, which burns the velvet surface.
- Water: Water when the top inch of mix is dry. Keep it evenly moist, never soggy.
- Humidity: 60% or higher. Low humidity shows up as new leaves that stick or tear as they unfurl.
- Soil: A chunky aroid mix of orchid bark, perlite and some sphagnum or coir. The roots need air as much as water.
- Temperature: 65–85°F. Keep it above 60°F.
- Pets: Toxic to cats and dogs. Anthuriums contain calcium oxalate crystals that irritate the mouth and stomach if chewed.
Raise the humidity before a new leaf opens, not after. Once a leaf has hardened with a crimp or tear, it stays that way.
What will I receive?
A rooted cutting or an established plant, similar to the photos. Each plant is an individual, so leaf size and vein pattern can vary a little.
How does Anthurium Crystallinum ship?
We ship within the United States by USPS from our California warehouse. Orders leave within 1–3 business days and usually arrive 2–5 days later. Shipping is $12 for the first plant and $4 for each extra plant. Hawaii is a flat $30.
Ordering in cold weather? We can add a heat pack to the box for a small extra fee. Message us when you place your order.
If your plant arrives dead or badly damaged, tell us within 3 days of delivery and include an unboxing video. We will send a replacement.
Can I order from outside the US?
Labijo.com ships to US addresses only. If you live in another country, contact our home nursery in Indonesia through labijo.id and ask what they can send to you. Plant material crossing borders needs a phytosanitary certificate, and some countries also ask for an import permit, so they will check your country’s rules with you.
