The Velvet Queen of Aroids

Meet the legendary Anthurium Warocqueanum, the undisputed Queen of the collector world. Renowned for its dramatic, dark green, velvety leaves that can grow to astonishing lengths, this plant is a breathtaking centrepiece. The foliage feels like crushed velvet, with crystalline silver veins that shimmer in the light. This is not a beginner's houseplant; it's a rewarding project for the dedicated aroid enthusiast who is ready for a challenge. The Queen demands specific conditions, particularly high humidity, making it a perfect candidate for a greenhouse cabinet or a carefully controlled indoor environment. Grown right here in the EU with love, this young plant is your chance to raise royalty.

Why You'll Love It

  • Unmatched Foliage: Experience the iconic, elongated leaves with a deep velvet texture and striking silver venation that defines a high-end collection.
  • A Rewarding Challenge: Successfully growing a Warocqueanum is a true badge of honour for any plant collector, offering immense satisfaction as it unfurls each new, majestic leaf.
  • Statement Piece: Even as a juvenile plant, its unique texture and form command attention and signal a sophisticated taste in botanicals.
  • Collector's Classic: Owning a Queen Anthurium is a rite of passage for many serious aroid collectors; it's a living work of art with enduring appeal.

Care Essentials

Light: Provide very bright, indirect light. An east-facing window or a spot a metre or two back from a south or west-facing window is ideal. It must be protected from direct sun, which will scorch the delicate leaves. Insufficient light will result in slow growth and smaller leaves.

Water: This is critical. Water thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of the substrate feels dry to the touch. It must never sit in water, as its fine roots are highly susceptible to rot. When in doubt, it's better to wait another day. During winter, reduce watering frequency as growth slows.

Soil/Substrate: A super chunky, airy, well-draining aroid mix is non-negotiable. Our aroid substrate mix is perfect, or you can create your own using a blend of orchid bark, perlite, coco chunks, and charcoal to ensure maximum oxygen at the roots.

Humidity & Airflow: The Queen demands high humidity, consistently above 70%. This is best achieved in a greenhouse cabinet, a terrarium, or with a powerful humidifier running nearby. It also appreciates gentle airflow to prevent fungal issues, so avoid completely stagnant air.

Pet Safety

Important: Like other members of the Araceae family, Anthurium Warocqueanum is toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals which can cause irritation and swelling. Please place it safely out of reach of curious pets and children.

Common Issues

  • Crispy Leaf Edges/Tips: The most common issue, almost always caused by insufficient humidity.
  • Yellowing Leaves: Can be a sign of overwatering (check the roots for rot), or simply the plant shedding an older leaf to focus energy on new growth, which is common during acclimation.
  • Brown Spots on Leaves: Could be a bacterial/fungal issue from water sitting on the leaves in a low-airflow environment, or sometimes from sunburn.
  • Stunted Growth: Usually a result of inadequate light, low humidity, or being kept in a substrate that is too dense and wet.

Botanical Background

Native to the warm, wet, tropical rainforests of Colombia, Anthurium warocqueanum grows as an epiphyte on the trunks of trees. Understanding its natural habitat is key to its care: it's used to dappled light filtering through the canopy, high humidity, frequent rainfall, and having its roots exposed to plenty of air. Replicating these conditions is the path to success. The common name "Queen Anthurium" is a nod to its regal and demanding presence, a fitting title for such a spectacular species.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are the leaves on my new Anthurium warocqueanum turning yellow or crispy?
This is very common. The Queen Anthurium is famously sensitive to changes in environment and shipping stress. Yellowing can indicate overwatering or the plant resorbing energy from an older leaf to acclimate. Crispy edges almost always point to low humidity. Upon arrival, place it in a high-humidity (70%+) location with gentle airflow and bright, indirect light, and be very careful not to overwater as it settles in. Expect a period of adjustment.

Does Anthurium warocqueanum need a greenhouse or cabinet to thrive?
While not strictly mandatory, it is highly recommended. The Queen requires consistent high humidity (ideally 70%+) that is difficult to maintain in a typical European living room, especially with central heating in winter. A greenhouse cabinet, terrarium, or a dedicated room with a humidifier will give you the best chance of success and help it produce those magnificent, long leaves. It is not a suitable plant for average room humidity.

The title says 'XL', but the pot size seems small. Is this a mature plant?
This 'XL' refers to the genetic potential of the plant, not its current size. You are purchasing a healthy, established juvenile Anthurium warocqueanum. These plants are slow growers, and starting with a strong young plant allows you to acclimate it to your specific conditions from an early stage, which is often more successful than introducing a large, mature specimen. It has the potential to grow spectacular, metre-long leaves with proper care over time.

Quality Knives At A Bargain Price
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
I have had these knives for almost 18 months now and they have held up great Edge retention is fantastic, and as long as you treat them right and don't leave dried tomato sauce on them for 5 days, no rust to speak of or even any discoloring! The build is fantastic and they are well balanced. I still can't believe I got this set for the price I did. I have a collection of pocket knives, I own Japanese wet stones to sharpen and understand what 8cr13mov, s30V and 14c28n is in knife production. (It's metal alloys BTW.) Having said that, I was a bit picky in finding a knife set that was quality built, had good steel and didn't cost $800. I honestly don't know how they are producing this set and not losing their shirts. Full tang design (One piece of steel from tip through the handle to the butt), and has nice glass fiber reinforced polymer handle material. I can't find any reference to this set in particular for what steel is used, but based on using various steel through the years I have a pretty good idea what this probably is. (BTW, I hate to break to you. At this price, it's absolutely NOT German steel...and that's okay anyway.) Brodark references Japanese VG10 steel with their other stand alone chef knives. It is common in the Chinese knife industry to copy an alloy alloy and call it by it's original name. It's NOT Japanese steel. What is commonly referred to as VG10 is 10cr15mov or 8cr15mov. Both are fine steel to use for a "general purpose" knife and perform similar to Japanese VG10, or even US made 440c stainless...perhaps even a little better than 440c. The steel in these knives is pretty dang hard, which makes me think it is 10cr15mov. The 10 is the Chromium content in the alloy. More chromium, more hard, more hard ='s more brittle. There is a balance of how hard without being brittle. Some knife makers use super hard steel to get a wicked sharp edge that holds for a while...buuuut then after a year of use you see all the chips along the edge or perhaps even a tip has snapped off. That's hard, brittle steel. You can't fix chips unless you grind them down and create a totally new edge on the knife and start over. These Brodark knives find a nice balance of hardness for edge retention but enough give to not chip or break off under general use. Like I said, almost 1.5 years of use and no chips, bends, or scratches. I still can't believe I paid around $50 for them. Incredible.

Wow! Amazing knives, regardless of the cost
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
I don’t know how they do it for the price These knives are amazing, and I got them on sale for well less than a Benjamin The package with the block and the knives in it was so heavy, that I needed someone to help me get it out of the inner box. The knives are beautiful, heavy, well balanced. I can vouch, that they are sharp AF, because I cut myself twice unpacking them 😂😂😂 No fault to the manufacturer; they were very well packed. I am just a klutz First time I used them, straight out of the box with only a soapy bath before, was on a tomato and cucumber. I only have the use of one arm, and usually have to get an adaptive cutting board to secure my fruit/veges before I can start cutting them. But these knives were so heavy and so sharp, I didn’t need to do that It cut through the tomato skin like water The hardwood block looks beautiful on my countertop These are beautiful knives on their own. When you throw in how incredibly inexpensive they are… Buy them now. Highly recommended.

Best Knife Block Set For Any Kitchen
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
We ordered and love the BRODARK Kitchen Knife Set with Block, Full Tang 15 Pcs Professional Chef Knife Set with Knife Sharpener, Food Grade German Stainless Steel Knife Block Set Steel-king Series. This set is one of the best purchases we've ever made. We purchased 4 other brand sets and sent them back due to poor quality, etc. One set cost $299 and was not as sharp or solid as the Brodark, and had straight uncomfortable handles. Our new set is sharp, well-balanced, and the handles have a solid, comfortable feel and look great. The quality block looks very nice and has a sharpener to boot. The blades after washing look fantastic. For under $100 this is stupendous value and product (regardless of price). One set we ordered was from the famous German brand and it had knives missing and the steak knives had tiny handles; we sent it back.
