Anthurium magnificum（アンスリウム・マグニフィクム） — Care Guide & Details

About magnificum

A terrestrial species characterized by large, broadly heart-shaped leaves with prominent white venation against a dark olive-green to nearly black background. Leaves can reach 30-60 cm in length with a velvety texture. The petioles are distinctively quadrangular (four-sided) in cross-section, which distinguishes it from the similar A. crystallinum. New leaves emerge with a bronze to burgundy coloration.

Care Tips

Requires high humidity (70% or above) for optimal leaf development. The quadrangular petioles are a key identification feature. Use rich, well-draining substrate with high organic content. Sensitive to cold drafts and sudden temperature changes. Avoid water accumulation on leaves in cool conditions to prevent fungal issues. Can hybridize readily with A. crystallinum; many plants in cultivation are hybrids. Contains calcium oxalate crystals; toxic if ingested.
