Anthurium salgarense

Large, ovate-sagittate leaves and long petioles define Anthurium salgarense. Mature blades have been recorded at around 81–96 cm long and 30–40 cm wide, with dark green upper surfaces, paler undersides and raised pale major veins.

This Colombian species grows terrestrially on steep rocky banks. In a pot, thick roots need a stable, open substrate, while the long petioles need clear space around the crown as new leaves expand.

Large terrestrial Anthurium traits

  • Origin: Native to Colombia.
  • Habitat: Mid-elevation Andean wet-forest habitats and rocky banks.
  • Growth habit: Terrestrial, with short thick internodes and fibrous cataphyll remains.
  • Petioles: Very long, erect-spreading petioles hold the blades away from the crown.
  • Leaf shape: Broad ovate-sagittate blades with undulate margins.
  • Venation: Raised pale greenish-yellow major veins and 12–14 primary lateral veins per side.
  • Scale: Mature leaves can become large, so pot stability becomes important as the plant develops.

Rocky-bank growth and scale

Anthurium salgarense grows from terrestrial rocky-bank habitats. Its roots need air and drainage, and the plant also needs a stable, moisture-retentive aroid mix that can hold a large root system.

Long petioles shift weight outward from the crown. A sturdy container, clear leaf space and careful handling around new growth reduce bent petioles and torn expanding blades.

Pot care for Anthurium salgarense

  • Light: Bright filtered light encourages firm leaf development while reducing scorch risk.
  • Water: Keep the substrate evenly moist, then allow excess water to drain completely.
  • Substrate: Use an open but moisture-retentive aroid mix with bark, coarse fibre, pumice and a small amount of humus-rich material.
  • Humidity: Higher humidity protects new large leaves while they expand.
  • Temperature: Warm, stable temperatures suit the species; cold wet substrate can stall roots.
  • Pot stability: Use a sturdy container once the petioles lengthen and the leaf mass increases.
  • Space: Keep enough clearance around the plant so broad blades and long petioles are not pressed against shelves or neighbouring plants.

Issues with large-leaved growth

  • Top-heavy plant: The pot may be too small or too light for the petiole and leaf mass.
  • Root stress: Dense wet substrate can suffocate roots and cause yellowing.
  • Torn new leaves: Crowding or low humidity can damage large blades while they expand.
  • Scorched patches: Direct sun can mark the broad leaf surface.
  • Slow growth after watering: Cold wet roots may be holding the plant back.
  • Bent petioles: The plant needs more clearance around the crown and leaf spread.

Handling safety

Anthurium salgarense contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Keep it away from pets and children that may chew the leaves, and handle cut or damaged tissue carefully to avoid irritation.

Botanical background

Anthurium salgarense Croat is a Colombian species in Araceae. It was published in Aroideana in 2003.

As Anthurium salgarense matures, the thick root system, long petioles and large sagittate blades make pot stability part of everyday care.

Solid bamboo board set for the price
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
This bamboo cutting board set has been a nice addition to my kitchen. I like having different sizes available, and I especially appreciate being able to reduce how often I use plastic cutting boards. Mine did have a strong odor at first, but after washing them and letting them air out, that went away. They also seem good for the price

Awesome Boards….BUT the Smell!!!!
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
I’d love to give these 5 stars, they are heavy, well made, smooth, deep juice grooves, just nice….but the smell! I washed them, then used vinegar on them, set them outside over night, washed them again….its better but still present. I’d love some guidance on this. I’m hoping it goes away in a few days. It’s like a very strong woodsy smell that actually made my whole kitchen smell like these boards! Edit: Ok, here's what I did. Washed, let dry, coated and scrubbed with apple cider vinegar, set them in a high air flow area for 24 hours (I put mine outside on the patio over night), washed and scrubbed again, let dry, scrubbed with lemons and salt, let dry, washed again. Finally, there is still a slight smell if you push them against your nose but that seems to be fading as well. So, great boards if you want to go stubbornly go through the smell removal process. I don't think it's a chemical smell, I think it's processed bamboo that is shrink wrapped in air tight packaging too soon after manufacturing. Anyway, I'll move this to 4 stars....but lots of work involved here!

Economical and descent for price
Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece, Color: Carbonized, Size: 3-piece
Pleased with price, style, color, and the 3 sizes of these carbonized bamboo cutting boards. Based on the reviews had the expectation of the "smell", which is the oil used to seal the cutting boards. (I suspect linseed oil was used based on the lingering smell, as the off-gasing process is longer. It's also cheaper than Tung oil and food grade mineral oil.) I work with wood and various oil sealants so the smell is a non-issue. As there are natural ways to speed that process up and minimize the smell. In addition, I will be using fractionated coconut oil or food grade mineral oil to seal cutting boards on a regularly basis (monthly or more frequent). As we live in a dry climate, hard water, and frequent use. Appreciate the other reviews which lead to our purchase and reasonable expectation of these cutting boards.
