Anthurium Gracile – Strap Leaf Collector Anthurium
Anthurium gracile is a distinctive tropical aroid known for its long, narrow green leaves, compact climbing habit and unusual hanging fruiting spikes. Often grown by collectors for its elegant strap-like foliage and botanical character, this species has a very different look from the broader, velvety-leaved Anthuriums commonly seen in indoor collections.
Why You’ll Love It ✔️
✔️ Appearance – Produces elongated, narrow green leaves with a clean, graceful shape that gives the plant an elegant tropical look.
✔️ Growing Appeal – A relatively manageable climbing Anthurium that suits warm, humid indoor growing conditions and can be trained vertically.
✔️ Point of Difference – Its slender foliage and distinctive pendant fruiting structures give it a much more botanical, species-focused appearance than many popular hybrid Anthuriums.
Care Tips
🌞 Light: Bright indirect light is ideal. Protect from harsh direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the foliage.
💧 Water: Water when the upper portion of the potting mix begins to dry. Keep the mix lightly moist during active growth while avoiding waterlogged conditions.
💦 Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity. A humidifier can be beneficial in dry indoor environments.
🌡 Temperature: Ideally 18–30°C. Protect from cold temperatures and cool drafts.
🌱 Soil: Use a loose, well-draining mix containing coco coir, coco chip & perlite to provide good moisture balance and root aeration.
🪴 Support: Benefits from a stake, pole or other vertical support as it matures and climbs.
🌿 Fertiliser: Controlled-release fertiliser is already added to the potting mix. A balanced liquid fertiliser can be applied occasionally during active growth.
🚫 Toxicity: Anthuriums contain calcium oxalate crystals and are considered toxic if chewed or ingested by pets or children. Keep out of reach.
A beautiful choice for collectors who appreciate unusual Anthurium species and elegant, narrow foliage.
We get a lot of questions about how our shipping works, so here’s a simple breakdown 🌿📦
Our shipping rates are charged per box, with each box able to fit up to 8 × 75mm potted plants.
As a general guide:
• 75mm pots make the best use of space, with up to 8 plants fitting in one box
• 100mm pots take up more space, so a box will usually fit around 3 plants depending on their size and shape
If your order requires more than one box, the website will automatically add the additional shipping charge.
For example:
• Up to 8 × 75mm plants = 1 box
• Larger 100mm plants use more box space and may reduce the total number of plants that fit in each box
