anthurium peltigerum Anthurium peltigerum – Sprouts of BristolA truly unusual and collector worthy Anthurium, Anthurium peltigerum is admired for its distinctive peltate leaves, where the stem attaches to the underside of the leaf rather than the edge. This gives the foliage a beautifully shield like appearance, with soft, rounded forms and elegant veining. Its unique structure makes it a standout in any plant collection, especially for those drawn to more botanical, less conventional houseplants. Scientific
