Anthurium villenaorum

Anthurium villenaorum forms a compact crown with dark velvet leaves and pale veins. This Peruvian Anthurium is associated with the Moyobamba area of northern Peru.

The leaves stand on firm, sometimes angular-looking petioles. The blades broaden and darken as the plant matures. In a pot, it stays compact and crown-forming.

Velvet leaves and upright crown

  • Dark green velvet leaves
  • Pale to silvery-white venation
  • Broad to elongated heart-shaped blades
  • Compact upright crown
  • Firm petioles that can look angular
  • New leaves deepen in colour as they mature

Anthurium villenaorum origin

This Anthurium is associated with humid forest conditions around Moyobamba in northern Peru. It prefers warmth, filtered light, steady humidity and an airy mix around the roots.

When it flowers, it produces the usual Anthurium spathe and spadix. As it grows, the dark velvet leaves and pale veins become more defined.

Anthurium villenaorum care

  • Light: Bright filtered light keeps growth steady. Strong direct sun can mark the velvet surface.
  • Watering: Water when the upper 20–30% of the pot has started to dry. The lower part of the pot should stay lightly moist, not packed wet.
  • Substrate: Bark with coco chips or coarse coir gives structure; pumice or perlite keeps the mix open around the roots.
  • Pot choice: Keep the pot close to the root-ball size so watering stays easier to control.
  • Temperature: Warmth suits active growth. Cold windowsills, floors and wet substrate slow the roots.
  • Humidity: Aim above 60% humidity; higher, steadier humidity helps new leaves open more cleanly.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a diluted complete fertiliser.
  • Repotting: Refresh the mix once it compacts or roots fill the pot. Increase pot size gradually.
  • Handling: Touch the velvet leaves as little as possible because pressure marks and residue show clearly.
  • Propagation: Use division or node-bearing sections only when the plant is strong enough.

Leaf and root issues

  • Yellowing lower leaves: Cold roots, dense substrate, slow drainage or watering too early are common causes.
  • Crisp edges: Dry air, irregular watering, fertiliser strength and salt buildup can all play a part.
  • Small new leaves: Small new leaves often come from weak roots or too little light.
  • Marked leaf surface: Water residue, handling marks and pests can all show on velvet leaves.
  • Stuck new growth: Low humidity, poor airflow or cold roots can slow new growth.
  • Slow recovery after repotting: Warmth and even moisture help new roots form.

Pot growth

Anthurium villenaorum grows best in an open mix and a pot size that matches the current roots.

Pets, children and handling

Keep Anthurium villenaorum out of reach of pets and children. Its tissues contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause mouth and throat irritation if plant material is eaten. Wash hands after cutting, dividing or handling damaged plant parts.

Name meaning

The epithet villenaorum honours Janette Karol Villena Bendez and Bruno Villena of Moyobamba, Peru. The genus name Anthurium refers to the spadix.

Gorgeous 😍
Size: 2' x 6' (Natural), Color: Champagne, Size: 2' x 6' (Natural), Color: Champagne
Absolutely beautiful!!! It is thick and luxurious, super soft and cozy. It’s really high quality and it shows. You can tell it’s natural without the burn test even from its cute little curls. All brushed (your pet brush is perfect 😉) out it looks stunning and fluffy. I got the champagne color and I love it! I don’t see any seams on the double pelt and it is substantial, not at all like it will disintegrate in a few years, but rather will become a much loved family heirloom. Well worth the investment! It is absolutely heavenly to perform yoga on by the fire 😌I love taking my slippers off and feeling the soft fur. I don’t want to get off it lol. I understand all those other customer’s kids and cats 🤣😂🤣

This is the one you want...

I bought a ‘Genuine Sheepskin Rug Double Pelt Natural White Fur 2x6’ from Amazon in 2011 for $112.49, and recently decided to recommission it in my new living room. It looked so nice that I decided to add a second rug, and was pleased to find what Amazon claimed to be the same rug still available for only $83.78. Now I’m not one of those silly folks who expects the color and/or size of a natural product like a sheepskin rug to be perfectly predictable, and my living room is large enough that I didn’t need the two rugs to match perfectly, but when the new rug arrived, I couldn’t have been more disappointed. It was about 40% smaller than my older rug, was way, way off from anything that could be called white, and looked cheap, old, and tattered. I tried to comb it out a bit to see if I could make it look presentable, but it was a lost cause. Amazon to the rescue. I returned the rug to Amazon for a full refund the next morning, and the transaction couldn’t have been simpler. And I immediately ordered the ‘Genuine Sheepskin Rug Double Pelt Natural White Fur 2x6’ shown on this page from Super Area Rugs for $119.00. What a difference! These rugs are large, plush, and super soft. The quality of these rugs is obvious, much, much nicer that either my old sheepskin rug or the ‘bargain’ rug I returned to Amazon. I was so impressed with the quality of this rug that I immediately ordered a second, which arrived this morning (it matches the other rug perfectly). My older sheepskin has been reassigned to another room because, well, it’s not in the same league as my two new rugs, which look terrific together. As is so often the case, you get what you pay for. So if you’re looking for a top quality sheepskin rug, this is the one you want.

Very nice fleeces
This is a clean, soft, well groomed fleece intended for use on a 6 foot long sofa, so bought 2. They moved too much as a result of shifting bodies on the leather couch, so will get a longer version, sewn bottom to bottom, and used each of these fleeces on both armrests, instead.

Excellent Product!!! Will purchase again!
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Wolf Tipped
Instead of ordering a cover for reclining loveseats, I chose to drape one of these over the headrest on either end of our loveseat. Not only do they protect the leather, they also help to elevate our decor. The rugs were received in a very timely manner. They are super soft, & warming as we move into the winter months. We've had family & friends comment on how great they look. 2 of them have already ordered, & added them to their sofa/loveseat/recliner decor. Have an issue of them slipping, add some velcro in between the crook of the cushion & the back of the furniture piece. It doesn't show & will help to keep the rug in place; if your busy body.!

After speaking over the phone with the seller, I was confident in this purchase for my SPD son. They do not use harsh chemicals or dyes in the process. It is from New Zealand and the only use in Vietnam is for shipping. My son hasn't been diagnosed yet for Autism but he is in the process. He is super sensitive to all things sensory and Amazon feedback isn't the place to give specific details on his condition but I will write that when he fist touched it- which was willingly- he smiled and asked to sleep on it. When he laid down on it and I covered him- he was calm and smiling. In the pic I provided he is calm and holding his door (his obsession is doors and windows). He even set his door down to hold the fur. For other mommies and papas with spd/autistic kids you know that willingly touching a new fabric and setting down an obsessive item is huge and super encouraging! I am so grateful to have such a quality item that is affordable for my special needs son. His older sister received one as well as is now pretending to be a sheep. Fun for everyone! The ONLY negative is that the brand/info sticker on the pelt was a pain to get off and pulled some of the felt - not damaging it but blemishing the unity -but if the skin is down it will not be noticeable. A super fun detail is that all of the fur is combed out but there were a few strands that were wavy and had a slight curl- I LOVED that. There was no odor at all which is great! I expected an animal smell which is better than chlorine or dioxin which is what competitors use in their process. There is no noticeable seam in the middle on the top where the two pelts are gathered. I am soooo satisfied!
