Anthurium recavum – A Rare Aroid with Quilted, Glossy Foliage

Distinctive Features and Growth Habit

Anthurium recavum is a rare terrestrial or epiphytic species from the Andes, recognized for its narrowly ovate-sagittate leaves, glossy surface, and deeply quilted veins. Its striking foliage, combined with a uniquely shaped sinus where the leaf lobes turn inward, makes it an eye-catching plant for collectors. This species is further distinguished by its purplish spathe and rosy to lavender-purple spadix, which contrast beautifully with the dark green leaves.

Key Characteristics of Anthurium recavum

  • Foliage: Narrowly ovate-sagittate leaves, glossy to semi-glossy, with quilted, sunken veins.
  • Growth Habit: Terrestrial or epiphytic, with short internodes and persistent, reddish-brown cataphylls.
  • Size: Leaves reach 18 – 68 cm in length and 10 – 28 cm in width.
  • Inflorescence: Produces a purplish spathe and a rosy to lavender-purple spadix.
  • Toxicity: Contains calcium oxalate crystals, making it toxic if ingested by pets or children.

Natural Habitat and Growing Conditions

  • Native Range: Found in Costa Rica, Colombia, Ecuador.
  • Altitude: Grows between 600 – 2,095 m in lower montane and premontane wet forests.
  • Best Placement: Prefers bright, indirect light similar to its natural understory environment.
  • Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18°C – 26°C, avoiding cold drafts.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity above 60% to maintain its glossy foliage.

How to Care for Anthurium recavum

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light but may grow slower.
  • Watering: Water when the top 2-3 cm of soil is dry. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
  • Soil and Potting: Requires a well-draining mix with orchid bark, perlite, and humus-rich components.
  • Fertilizing: Apply a diluted, balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during active growth.
  • Propagation: Best propagated via stem cuttings with aerial roots.
  • Support: Benefits from a moss pole or trellis for climbing as an epiphyte.

Common Issues and How to Fix Them

  • Root Rot: Avoid overwatering and use a well-draining mix.
  • Pests: Watch for spider mites and thrips; treat with neem oil, or use beneficial insects or insecticidal soap.
  • Leaf Discoloration: Low humidity can cause browning edges – use a humidifier if needed.

Additional Notes

  • Unique Sinus Shape: The leaf’s posterior lobes curve inward, sometimes overlapping.
  • Leaf Texture: Subcoriaceous (firm, slightly leathery) with prominent raised veins.

Etymology: The Origin of the Name

Anthurium recavum was described by botanist Thomas Croat in 2010. Its name likely refers to its recurved sinus, a defining leaf feature.

Might be the Goldilocks blanket
Color: 04 - Sage Green, Size: Throw (50" X 60"), Color: 04 - Sage Green, Size: Throw (50" X 60")
Everybody loves these blankets. Couch throw or super comforting blanket on top of bed covers. My wife selected the first. Now we own 4 or 5. Wife, son, couch, gifts to niece and father. Easy to wash; comes out new again. Doesn't feel cheap or low quality textile like. Feels great light-medium weight! Not too hot. Not too thin or light. Just might be the goldilocks blanket.

Great buy, soft, fluffy, great colors, warm, fun!
Color: Purple, Size: Queen(90"x90")
This is a very very soft queen blanket, just what I wanted. The dark purple color is what I wanted as well. As I put it on the bed the 1st time I noticed a lot of "fluff" in the air & on the sheets. So I washed it just to a)get the extra "fluff" off and b) to get the bubble effect more fluffy. It came vacuum packed and wasn't as fluffed up as I'd hoped. So, It washed beautifully and I put it in the dryer with 4 wool balls & scent drops I'd also ordered from Amazon. I used this instead of a softener sheet because I read that the wool balls make laundry softer, static free and smelling fresh & in the case of this typeblanket or throw, fluffier. The blanket came out of the dryer perfect! Much softer, much fluffier - you could really notice the bubbles - and there wasn't much lint in the lint catcher, but it was enough to stop it from shedding little fluffy bits! I have this blanket on my bed now. It's warm, lightweight, and the bubbles and color make me smile when I look at it. Very happy with purchase!

Small and so cute
This blanket is so cute and perfect for adding a cozy touch to any space! The color is a rich, warm brown that looks great with my other decor. It’s small, but that’s what makes it perfect as an accent piece—it looks amazing draped over a chair or folded on a shelf. The material feels soft and high-quality. It didn’t have any weird smell after opening it. I would say it should be used more for decoration than everyday use. It adds just the right amount of texture without being bulky or taking up too much space. Works perfect as a drape over side of bed, chair, or blanket ladder. For the price, I think it’s a great find. It’s stylish, simple, and really ties the room together. If you’re looking for an affordable way to elevate your decor, this is it!

Cheap material
Color: Ivory, Size: Throw(50"x60")
Does not look like product pictures. Different design and texture. Kept anyway because I chose more for color. After washing a couple of times, these blankets appear VERY worn. They're thinner than preferred and don't wear well. A cheap product for a cheap price. The color was as expected though.
