Anthurium warocqueanum

Anthurium warocqueanum, often known as Queen Anthurium, is a Colombian epiphytic Anthurium with long, pendant velvet leaves and pale veins running through the blade. Young plants start with shorter, upright foliage, then gradually develop elongated leaves that give mature plants a vertical hanging form.

The plant grows from a central stem and produces leaves that hang downward as they mature. A raised pot, tall plant stand or stable vertical anchor keeps the blades clear of shelves and neighbouring plants.

Anthurium warocqueanum foliage profile

  • Growth habit: Epiphytic Anthurium with a central stem and long pendant leaves.
  • Leaf form: Narrow, elongated heart-shaped blades that lengthen noticeably with maturity.
  • Texture: Velvet green surface with a soft appearance and marked sensitivity to abrasion.
  • Venation: Pale veins run lengthwise through the blade and become more striking on larger leaves.
  • Placement: Raised placement gives mature foliage room to hang below the pot.

Origin, morphology and growth behaviour

Anthurium warocqueanum is an accepted species in the Araceae family. It is native to Colombia and grows in the wet tropical biome as an epiphyte. Its roots are adapted to a moist but aerated environment around tree surfaces, which is why container culture needs both humidity and excellent oxygen flow through the substrate.

The leaves can become very long under stable, warm, humid conditions, but their quality depends heavily on root health and consistent leaf expansion. A plant with active roots, filtered light and steady humidity usually produces cleaner, longer blades.

Care for Anthurium warocqueanum

  • Light: Give bright filtered light. The plant needs enough light for strong leaf production, while direct midday sun can scorch the soft surface.
  • Watering: Keep the substrate evenly moist, then let the upper layer begin to dry before watering again. The roots need moisture and air at the same time.
  • Substrate: Use a coarse epiphyte-style aroid mix with bark, chunky fibre, pumice or perlite. Fine, compacted mixes increase root-loss risk.
  • Humidity: Aim for 70–85% humidity for the cleanest leaf expansion. Air movement is important in enclosed cabinets or grow tents.
  • Temperature: Keep warm, ideally 21–28 °C. Avoid cold nights and a wet root zone, especially during slower growth.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a complete fertiliser. Large leaves respond better to steady low-level nutrition than irregular strong doses.
  • Support: A moss pole, plank or stable stake can help the stem stay upright while leaves hang downward from the crown.
  • Pot setup: Use a pot with generous drainage and enough weight to balance the pendant foliage. A raised position keeps mature blades clear of shelves and pot edges.
  • Repotting: Repot carefully before the substrate breaks down. Disturbed roots can slow the next leaf, so keep healthy roots intact where possible.
  • Outdoor summer placement: In warm European summer weather, move only acclimated plants to a sheltered, shaded position when nights stay above 18 °C.

Common signals in Queen Anthurium

  • Crisped leaf edges: Check humidity stability, airflow and fertiliser concentration. Long leaves lose quality quickly under dry or salty conditions.
  • Yellowing lower leaves: Inspect the roots and substrate. Older leaves often decline when the lower mix has become stale or waterlogged.
  • Short new leaves: Review light, root mass and temperature. Weak roots usually show through reduced leaf length.
  • Torn or stuck new growth: Keep humidity steady while a leaf is emerging and give the new blade space to unfurl.
  • Stem leaning: Add support early. A mature leaf can pull the crown forward if the stem has no vertical anchor.

Anthurium warocqueanum is easier to manage once light, moisture and stem anchoring stay consistent. Keep conditions steady while a new leaf is expanding, then adjust only after the blade has hardened.

Anthurium warocqueanum safety notes

Anthurium warocqueanum should be kept away from pets and children that may chew plant material. Its tissues contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth and throat if chewed or swallowed. Keep it away from pets and small children, and handle cut tissue with care.

Anthurium warocqueanum name background

The accepted botanical name is Anthurium warocqueanum T.Moore, in the family Araceae. The genus name Anthurium refers to the tail-like spadix. The species epithet warocqueanum honours the Belgian horticultural patron Arthur Warocqué.

Anthurium warocqueanum matures into long pendant velvet leaves with pale venation and a clear vertical hanging form.

Size down! But overall comfortable and cute and good quality
Size: Small, Color: Light Yellow
Overall it’s cute and comfortable, but my advice is to SIZE DOWN!!! I wish I would have, but I’ve already washed it so it’s too late. The straps are adjustable, but even so, I’ve had to tighten them as far as they’ll go. For reference, I am 5’1” and 125#, rectangle shaped/boxy body with a very small chest and I got a Small. The top gapes open on me and the dress is longer than I prefer for this style. Material/fabric is nice and good quality and it’s a perfect one-piece easy outfit for warm days. I like the yellow color too. It is tricky to find the right bra to wear with it, though. Got lots of compliments on it the first time I wore it.

Cute, Comfy & Flowy—Great for Plus Size!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
I really like this dress! It’s super comfortable and lightweight, and the material feels soft without being too thin. It has a nice flow to it, so it doesn’t cling to your body, which I really appreciate. For reference, I’m 5’4” with a 46” bust, and the dress fits well overall. The length is great, and I love that it has a relaxed fit—it’s easy to throw on and still look put together. The pockets are also a nice bonus and actually usable. The only thing to note is the top area can be a little more open on the sides, so I personally prefer wearing a sports bra or something cute underneath. It actually works really well styled that way and gives that “layered” look. Overall, it’s a really easy, comfortable dress that you can dress up or down. I’ll definitely be wearing this a lot!

Comfy but only for home use
Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Gray, Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Gray
I love the idea of this dress but my issues with it are as follows... 1. No support for breast at all. The body suit fits great and legs don't ride up but do have to wear a bra if you have more than a b cup. 2. I had to adjust straps to tightest level to avoid gapping. Once you do that you can't get it down to use restroom without loosening straps again. 3. Im pretty sure its meant to be shorter however, im 5ft 3" and it comes to my knees. Not a big deal for me since id rather it be like that. 4. I don't think it will still fit once its washed and dried since it fit perfect now. My measurements are 5ft3",195#, 36ddd, 32" waist and 45" hip. I ordered an xl. 5. It's unusually heavy and shows sweat pretty bad so wouldn't wear for tennis or any other sport. 6. It's designed for much larger breast. Im a 36ddd and it still gaps on me The good part of it is... its super comfy to garden in or wear around the house so I may get one other size/color just for that but not sure id wear it out unless im at a campground lazing about (with a bra). I did order recommended size and fit correctly until its washed. It does also conceal weight but is not overly attractive on curvy women in my opinion

Postpartum Certified!! :)
Size: Medium, Color: Black
I am currently a breast feeding mother who is only 5 weeks post partum. Heading into the summer I needed clothes that fit my changing body and gave me a little confidence that I’ve been lacking recently. This dress has completely done it!! The material is extremely comfortable and not too tight on my body. It’s long enough to give me the coverage that I’m comfortable with but still makes me feel cute. Without knowing how to shop for or what size my body is at after birth, I listened to the comments and got a medium when I was thinking I might be a large and it fits great! Definitely size down though! I will be getting more!!!

Cute beach outfit
Size: Medium, Color: Purple, Size: Medium, Color: Purple
Cute summer lounge outfit. Material is similar to a T-shirt so it's breathable. The shape wear is built in and sturdy and unnoticeable under the dress part. I love the pockets, they easily fit your phone and other items. It's a perfect beach outfit, honestly, and super cute with sandals. I'm 5'7" 168lbs and wearing a size Medium. Not necessarily a con, but something to note: if you're a thick thigh girlie like me, the legs of the shape wear do ride up if you're walking around a lot, so wouldn't recommend if that's something that bothers you.
