Anthurium recavum – A Rare Aroid with Quilted, Glossy Foliage

Distinctive Features and Growth Habit

Anthurium recavum is a rare terrestrial or epiphytic species from the Andes, recognized for its narrowly ovate-sagittate leaves, glossy surface, and deeply quilted veins. Its striking foliage, combined with a uniquely shaped sinus where the leaf lobes turn inward, makes it an eye-catching plant for collectors. This species is further distinguished by its purplish spathe and rosy to lavender-purple spadix, which contrast beautifully with the dark green leaves.

Key Characteristics of Anthurium recavum

  • Foliage: Narrowly ovate-sagittate leaves, glossy to semi-glossy, with quilted, sunken veins.
  • Growth Habit: Terrestrial or epiphytic, with short internodes and persistent, reddish-brown cataphylls.
  • Size: Leaves reach 18 – 68 cm in length and 10 – 28 cm in width.
  • Inflorescence: Produces a purplish spathe and a rosy to lavender-purple spadix.
  • Toxicity: Contains calcium oxalate crystals, making it toxic if ingested by pets or children.

Natural Habitat and Growing Conditions

  • Native Range: Found in Costa Rica, Colombia, Ecuador.
  • Altitude: Grows between 600 – 2,095 m in lower montane and premontane wet forests.
  • Best Placement: Prefers bright, indirect light similar to its natural understory environment.
  • Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18°C – 26°C, avoiding cold drafts.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity above 60% to maintain its glossy foliage.

How to Care for Anthurium recavum

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light but may grow slower.
  • Watering: Water when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
  • Soil and Potting: Requires a well-draining mix with orchid bark, perlite, and humus-rich components.
  • Fertilizing: Apply a diluted, balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during active growth.
  • Propagation: Best propagated via stem cuttings with aerial roots.
  • Support: Benefits from a moss pole or trellis for climbing as an epiphyte.

Common Issues and How to Fix Them

  • Root Rot: Avoid overwatering and use a well-draining mix.
  • Pests: Watch for spider mites and thrips; treat with neem oil, or use beneficial insects or insecticidal soap.
  • Leaf Discoloration: Low humidity can cause browning edges – use a humidifier if needed.

Additional Notes

  • Unique Sinus Shape: The leaf’s posterior lobes curve inward, sometimes overlapping.
  • Leaf Texture: Subcoriaceous (firm, slightly leathery) with prominent raised veins.

Etymology: The Origin of the Name

Anthurium recavum was described by botanist Thomas Croat in 2010. Its name likely refers to its recurved sinus, a defining leaf feature.

Great product to keep moisture in
Size: M (up to size 9)-Beige
These are so cool. I was skeptical at first. After an at home pedicure I put lotion on and keep these on for about a few hours. The moisture retention, and comfort and fit or absolutely amazing!

These work!
Size: M (up to size 9)-Beige
I’ve had dry cracked feet my whole life. Tried these last night with lotion from Trader Joe’s and literally overnight my feet are the softest they’ve ever been. I put a pair of socks over them and went to sleep with them on. Hard to walk around with all that slippery-ness but worth it! 10/10✨👌

Exceeded My Expectations
Size: 1PCS, Color: Holo Silver
Love love LOVEEE. I feel like a fairy! You only need a short spritz to get a perfect amount of glitter. The sparkles are beautiful, rainbowy and long lasting. I sprayed some on me yesterday and it's still going strong. It dries quickly and really gets those sparkles down. Even if you rub the part of you that's been glittered, it sticks! It doesn't even have a chemically smell, it's kind of flowery? Which I totally didn't expect. However I would recommend spraying yourself outside because the glitter gets all over the house. Unfortunately (or fortunately) my floor will forever be glittered.
