Anthurium sp. Napo is a rare tropical anthurium native to the midelevation forests of the Napo region in Ecuador. It is known for its large, glossy, heart or arrowshaped leaves borne on redgreen petioles. The foliage is thick and deep dark green, often with minimal venation and striking lobes. It grows both terrestrially and epiphytically in its native habitat.

Native to:
The midelevation cloud forests of the Napo region, Ecuador, where it grows both on the ground and as an epiphyte under canopy cover. Leaves are thick, glossy and deep green with a broad heart or arrow shape, emerging from stout redgreen petioles.

Water:
Maintain slightly moist but welldrained soil. Water when the top third of the potting medium begins to dry. Avoid letting it sit in waterlogged conditions to prevent root issues.
