Anthurium salgarense – A Large, Majestic Aroid with Undulating Foliage
Distinctive Features and Growth Habit
Anthurium salgarense is a striking aroid native to the Andean Cordillera Occidental, thriving in rocky, steep terrains as a terrestrial species. This impressive plant is characterized by its broadly ovate-sagittate leaves, massive size, and wavy leaf margins, making it a standout addition to any rare plant collection. The subcoriaceous leaves have a deep green, slightly glossy upper surface, while the underside is noticeably paler and even glossier. With its towering inflorescence, this species is a true botanical giant.
Key Characteristics of Anthurium salgarense
- Foliage: Broadly ovate-sagittate leaves with undulating margins.
- Leaf Size: Ranges from 81-96 cm in length and 30-40 cm in width.
- Growth Habit: Terrestrial, thriving on steep rocky surfaces.
- Petiole Length: Exceptionally long, reaching up to 151 cm, making the plant's structure imposing.
- Inflorescence: Erect, nearly as long as the leaves, with a spreading-reflexed green spathe and a yellow-green spadix.
- Toxicity: Contains calcium oxalate crystals – toxic if ingested by pets or children.
Essential Care Guide
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; can tolerate dappled shade in its natural habitat.
- Watering: Keep the soil moist but well-draining; avoid prolonged sogginess.
- Humidity: Thrives in high humidity above 60%, mimicking its montane forest environment.
- Temperature: Prefers mild to warm conditions, thriving between 15°C and 28°C.
- Soil and Potting: Requires a well-draining, airy mix with orchid bark, perlite, and compost.
- Fertilizing: Use a balanced, diluted fertilizer every 4-6 weeks for steady growth.
- Propagation: Best propagated through stem division or basal offshoots.
- Pruning: Remove older leaves to encourage new growth.
Common Issues and How to Fix Them
- Root Rot: Avoid overwatering and ensure proper aeration.
- Pests: Susceptible to thrips, spider mites, and mealybugs. Treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap.
- Leaf Curling: Often due to low humidity; increase moisture levels with a humidifier.
Additional Notes
- Best Growth Support: This species grows exceptionally well when allowed to develop its natural terrestrial or epiphytic habit.
- Leaf Structure: The undulating margins and quilted venation give the foliage a highly textured appearance.
Etymology: The Origin of the Name

This ball has lasted and still have it after many months or longer. My dog loves it.
Color: Pink Squeak Toy, Size: Medium
My Belgian Malinois can really chew through inferior play toys and balls, etc., and this is one of the few that has lasted a long time, and he really likes it. Another bonus is that it gets quite slippery with his saliva and the ball will bounce a little bit unevenly, so it can either slip out of his mouth or bounce in an unexpected direction that can fool him. He has such quick reactions that is hard to get a ball past him, but with this ball, I can score extra points on him when he can't block it. Otherwise I have no chance, and he beats me every time.

Please go back to the original ball design and squeaker!!
Color: Pink Squeak Toy, Size: Medium, Color: Pink Squeak Toy, Size: Medium
Review update: I am updating my review for a few reasons. 1) The ball I ordered below was the 3rd time I purchased it. I originally bought one years ago, Pre-Covid, for my old pitty. My now Corgi, Jett loved that ball so I got a 2nd one for times when we couldn’t find the original. Well, the ball was slightly larger, the squeaker stopped working, and Jett preferred the original. 2) The newest one doesn’t squeak at all and is also slightly larger than the original. The original fell down the sewer drain that is in our backyard, and we lost the 2nd ball, so we ordered the ball again. My husband ended up having to retrieve the original from the sewer drain because Jett would pace around the sewer looking for the original. I ended up returning the 3rd ball because Jett doesn’t want anything to do with it & it doesn’t squeak. The video I provided is Jett squeaking the original that is at least 5-6 years old. I highly recommend the company go back to the original design that has not only stood the test of time and heavy use but is also the preferred size and for some reason has a much better, more reliable squeaker.
I bought 2 of these balls for my Corgi mix and another for my son’s girlfriend’s Golden Retriever. Both dogs love the ball. They love the squeak and the ball is very durable. The ball doesn’t easily squeak by hand but will when they bite down on the ball or when it bounces. Speaking of, it has a decent amount of bounce to it too. Our dog loves to jump in the air to catch it after it bounces off the ground. I highly recommend this ball for medium and large dogs.

Great fun for our dogs!
Style: Original
My dogs can’t get enough of this very noisy ball. We have one outside and one in their playroom. It is very noisy. It is very hard. So, I’d say a room with fine furniture is not the place for it. Ours bang it around pretty good.
Our boxer did split one, biting it. But, she’s a serious chewer! Our other dog carries it around sometimes but hasn’t been able to damage it yet. So, I’d say for most chewers it’s going to last a long time.
It’s a great toy but in most households I’d say basement or outside. Again, it’s hard and did ding a few baseboards.

Superb!
Style: Original
My dog absolutely loves this ball. It's too big for him to fit all the way in his mouth, so it's held up pretty well and still makes the sounds.
