The Anthurium veitchii, known as the King Anthurium, is an absolutely magnificent species that I'm incredibly excited to offer, representing the pinnacle of Anthurium collecting with its dramatic pendulous leaves and stunning corrugated texture. This exceptional plant produces some of the most architecturally striking foliage in the plant world, with long, lance-shaped leaves that can cascade gracefully whilst displaying deeply impressed parallel veining that creates a mesmerising ribbed effect.
