Anthurium warocqueanum × waterburyanum

Long, narrow velvet leaves shape Anthurium warocqueanum × waterburyanum from the start. The blades develop a deep green surface, pale venation and a hanging growth direction that needs open space around and below the pot.

The cross combines the elongated foliage associated with Anthurium warocqueanum with the Ecuadorian Anthurium waterburyanum parent. Indoors, the plant should sit where new blades can open and harden without pressing against shelves, glass or nearby pots.

Long velvet leaf features

  • Elongated foliage: The leaves have a narrow, hanging shape with a soft velvet surface.
  • Pale vein pattern: Light veins run through the blade and become clearer as the leaf matures.
  • Downward leaf movement: The leaves need room below and around the pot as they lengthen.
  • Soft expanding blades: New leaves can crease or mark if they touch hard surfaces while unfurling.
  • Epiphytic root behaviour: Thick roots need a loose, airy substrate with steady but never stagnant moisture.
  • Space-sensitive growth: Open placement helps the long leaves expand without rubbing or folding against nearby surfaces.

Long-leaf growth and indoor placement

The leaf shape makes placement important. A shelf edge, plant stand or open bench can give the blades space to extend as they grow. If new leaves press against a wall or neighbouring plant, the soft velvet surface may crease before it has hardened.

The root zone should be open and oxygen-rich, similar to other velvet Anthurium with epiphytic tendencies. A heavy, compact mix keeps too much water around the roots and can weaken the crown before leaf symptoms become obvious.

Care for Anthurium warocqueanum × waterburyanum

  • Placement: Give the leaves physical space below the pot and avoid narrow shelves where new blades can press against hard surfaces.
  • Substrate: Choose a chunky Anthurium mix with bark, coarse mineral material and fibres that prevent the root zone from compacting.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity helps long new leaves unfurl without sticking, tearing or drying at the edges.
  • Water: Keep the substrate evenly moist but airy, with a slight dry-down at the top before the next watering.
  • Light: Use bright filtered light. Direct sun can scorch long velvet leaves and dry the tips.
  • Temperature: Keep the plant warm and protect it from cold drafts, cold water and cold wet substrate.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth and keep the root zone flushed if salts collect in the mix.

Problems with long velvet leaves

  • Creased new leaves: Long soft blades can crease if they rub against shelving, glass or other plants during expansion.
  • Brown tips and margins: Dry air, irregular moisture or root stress can brown the edges of the elongated leaves.
  • Loose crown: A wobbling base can point to root loss in a dense or overly wet mix.
  • Scorch marks: Strong sun can leave pale dry patches on the velvet surface.
  • Pests: Thrips, spider mites and mealybugs can hide along the midrib, petioles and undersides of long leaves.

Safety for Anthurium warocqueanum × waterburyanum

Anthurium is not safe for pets or children to chew. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can irritate the mouth, throat, skin and eyes after contact with sap or damaged tissue.

You get Zink, but no “tropical” scent
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Great product. I wanted a Zink based sunscreen for my face, but I was hoping it would still have the Sun Bum traditional “tropical” scent. Sadly nope. I’m mixing it with the traditional Sun Bum 30 so I can get my tropical feel while keeping my face safe from sun damage. Hopefully I don’t turn green :)

Worked great
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
My skin is very sensitive to the sun. My skin does not tan I sun burn quickly! I love this sunblock because according to the ingredients it's reef & sea animal friendly. I found this product didn't leave a very noticeable white cast on my skin. I was able to blend it with very little noticeable white cast. I didn't find it sticky or really rubbing off on my clothes or bathing suite. In respect to all the things I mention it was all at a very minimal notice. For me it didn't have a smell of any kind. I used this product on vacation in Mexico. I tried & stayed out of the sun as much as I could. I went on a Mayan ruin tour following a snorkeling excursion & did not get a sunburn! Usually for that long period of time in the sun I would have received a light sunburn using other sunblocks but instead I actually got a light tan! I did apply this product on my body & face. I have to say this is my 1st time using this brand & it worked super well for me. :) *Just FYI when I applied this product I didn't need to apply to much if you do its going to obviously leave a white cast. I only applied as needed through out the day. Also make sure you give it time to sit to soak into your skin before putting on your clothes. After all you do have to wait a few min after applying before going out in the sun. That's any sunblock directions.

Finally! A sunscreen that works and does not burn my eyes.
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I am unable to use chemical or hybrid sunscreens on my face because they "melt" and destroy my eyes. Living in the south means daily sunscreen year-around is a must - having found this product is a godsend. Unscented, no chemicals to discolor my clothes, no titanium dioxide so no purple-white ghostly cast, easily rubs in. Simply perfect!!!

Effective Mineral Sun Protection
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This mineral sunscreen does a great job at blocking the sun. It applies smoothly, although it does have a slightly pasty texture which is typical of mineral sunscreens. I love that it was on the thinner side for consistency which makes it easy to apply evenly. We used it extensively last summer and it kept us well protected. We'll definitely be using it again this summer!

good consistency
Style: SPF 30, Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It is a body lotion and for that it's great but it's a bit white for face unless you are very fair. Not shiny which is a plus and goes on evenly.
