Anthurium longissimilobum

Anthurium longissimilobum is a Peruvian Anthurium species with long, narrow, triangular-subhastate leaves and extended posterior lobes. The blade shape gives the plant a stretched, arrow-like outline as it climbs, with the rear lobes forming a deep sinus behind the main blade.

This is an appressed-climbing epiphyte from the Huánuco region of Peru, where it was described from wet forest transitions around Tingo María. Indoors, its long lobes need space, vertical support and a root zone that stays airy after watering.

Leaf structure of Anthurium longissimilobum

  • Leaf architecture: Narrowly triangular-subhastate blades create a long, lean outline.
  • Posterior lobes: Very long rear lobes form the feature behind the species name.
  • Venation: Primary lateral veins can create a distinctive S-shaped pattern.
  • Growth form: Appressed-climbing epiphyte with short internodes.
  • Origin: Described from Peru, especially the Tingo María area in Huánuco.
  • Growing setup: Benefits from vertical support and a chunky epiphyte-style mix.

Long lobes, climbing growth and space

Anthurium longissimilobum develops its shape through length and narrow leaf architecture. The posterior lobes can extend close to the support, so the plant needs room behind and beside the leaf to keep the blade from creasing.

The climbing stem and short internodes suit a pole, plank or other vertical surface. A stable support keeps the growth upright and gives new leaves space to open without bending the narrow blade or marking the long lobes.

Habitat notes for Anthurium longissimilobum

This species is associated with Peruvian wet forest transitions between Premontane wet forest and Tropical moist forest. That background points to warm conditions, consistent moisture, strong drainage and stable humidity in an oxygen-rich root zone.

Care for Anthurium longissimilobum

  • Light: Give bright filtered light. Direct sun can scorch the extended leaf tissue.
  • Water: Keep the mix lightly moist, then let excess water drain fully so the root zone stays oxygenated.
  • Substrate: Use a coarse Anthurium or epiphyte mix with bark, fibre and mineral structure.
  • Support: Provide a pole or plank early so the climbing stem can hold a steady vertical line.
  • Humidity: Keep humidity stable while new leaves unfurl, especially as the long lobes extend.
  • Temperature: Maintain warm conditions and protect the roots from cold wet substrate.
  • Spacing: Leave enough clearance around the plant so the long posterior lobes do not crease or rub.

Common issues with Anthurium longissimilobum

  • Marked lobes: Long leaf sections can crease or tear when pressed against shelves, supports or neighbouring plants.
  • Distorted new leaves: Raise humidity stability and check that new growth is not caught against the support.
  • Root decline: Refresh compact substrate and improve drainage if the pot stays wet for too long.
  • Brown patches: Move the plant away from direct sun and check for heat buildup near glass.
  • Loose climbing stem: Tie new growth gently before the stem bends away from the support.

Safety for Anthurium longissimilobum

Anthurium longissimilobum contains irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Keep leaves, stems and cut sap away from pets, children and sensitive skin.

Botanical background

Anthurium longissimilobum was described by Croat in 2008. The epithet refers to the very long lobes, a direct match for the extended posterior lobes that shape the leaf.

It’s ok
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Doesn’t smell like anything, especially not fruit. Seems to work well- it’s what we use on our faces. I started using this all over on my daughter because their spray version is not good.

Overall this is a very good product
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I bought this because every sunblock I own eventually gets in my eyes and burns the living daylights out of them. I prefer to use something that isn't laden with chemicals, is cruelty free and reef safe so this looked like it would fit the bill and indeed, it does. It is a true "no tears" formula which I very much appreciate. As with so many zinc based sunblocks there's still a slight "Kabuki mask" effect but it isn't as bad as some of the other zinc products. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's easy to spread because it doesn't have a lot of "slip", doesn't glide like the non-zinc products. You do have to work with it for awhile to get rid of the decidedly chalky consistency but once you get going it seems to be okay. I think somebody else mentioned using a moisturizer before you put it on which seems like good idea even though this is supposed to be moisturizing. Would I purchase this again? I'm pretty sure I will because the "no tears" aspect of the product is important to me. I'll probably use it with a light carrier oil on my face first, let that oil sink in and then put this on top. I'll keep you posted on how that works out. Thank you, Alba Botanica, for being cruelty free and reef safe!

Thank you for making this
Style: Kids SPF 50, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have the most sensitive reactive skin. I regularly will breakout to products that are supposed to be hypoallergenic and non-clogging. I have used this product multiple times and have not had one issue. I also burn in literally 2 mins and I live in Las Vegas. This protected me and my skin did not react. It absorbed in like regularly lotion not leaving any white cast or sticky feeling. There was no scent which is SO important. I wore it only in the sun not swimming so I cannot comment on how well it works under those conditions. I will by this again without hesitation. If you are in need of a high quality sun protector and have skin like a baby or you are a baby this is the best.

In most of all circumstances, this works
Style: SPF 50, Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
For Summer time and when playing and working in the sun, this is my go to sunscreen! I love how it is more natural than all the other ones out there. I have been sort of a spray on sunscreen connoisseur and this is the one that is my favorite. Also, if I have gotten a burn and put this on it, I believe it helps start the healing process on the burn I got. This is at least what I experienced multiple times last year. The only circumstance that this sunscreen fails miserably is in the Caribbean. I recently went on a cruise to that region and applied this sunscreen and it became evident that this and the other brands of spray on sunscreen do not work in Caribbean sun. The only sunscreen that works is the lotion based stuff that you rub into your skin. I have also consulted with friends on spray on sunscreen in the Caribbean and they all fail as well. So, this is why I say that it works in almost every circumstance.
