One thing I love and hate about anthuriums is it takes forever for a node to push out the first leaf but once it takes off, it tends to push out big leaves fast. I was gifted an anthurium portillae (NSE lineage) rooted node last year. It didn't do anything for 3 months. Needless to say how desperate I was. But then all of the sudden, the node sprouted not only one but two offshoots. The lesson I get from this is patience. Plants tend to take their sweet time to grow.
Most people don't know anthurium Portillae is actually a hybrid of Anthurium sp. nov. DF, first found in Columbia, South America.
This is a lowlander anthurium that enjoy constant moisture in soil and humidity around 70-85%.
Despite of its pricetag, this unicorn is actually an easy and fast grower once you nail the growing conditions.
