Anthurium ‘Delta Force’

Anthurium ‘Delta Force’ has leaves that are broad near the top and narrow to a point. On young plants, the triangular shape may take a few leaves to show clearly.

It grows from a central crown, with structured leaves and strong roots. Pale veins run across the dark green blade, and new leaves come from the centre of the plant.

Shape and growth

• Deltoid leaves with a narrow pointed tip
• Broad upper blade and tapered lower section
• Pale veins over dark green foliage
• Compact central crown with strong roots

Care notes

• Light: Bright indirect light helps new leaves grow larger and develop the triangular shape
• Watering: Keep moisture even, then water again once the upper mix has started to dry
• Substrate: Choose a chunky aroid mix that gives thick roots plenty of oxygen
• Temperature: Keep it warm and away from cold, wet substrate
• Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps protect the narrow tips from drying
• Feeding: Light regular feeding supports larger leaves once roots are established
• Repotting: Move up a pot size when roots fill the container; keep young plants proportionate
• Support: Use a small stake only if the crown starts to lean

Troubleshooting

• Dry leaf tips: Check humidity, watering gaps, fertiliser strength and root condition
• Smaller new leaves: Check light, nutrition, root space and recent changes after shipping or repotting
• Yellowing leaves: Look at substrate moisture and root crowding first
• Tight roots: Thick roots can fill a small pot sooner than expected

Spathe and spadix

Older plants may flower with the usual Anthurium flower structure: a spathe around a central spadix. This plant is grown mainly for its triangular leaves.

Safety note

Keep away from pets and children; plant material can irritate the mouth, throat, skin and eyes if eaten or handled roughly.

Background

Anthurium ‘Delta Force’ comes from the Anthurium clarinervium × Anthurium pedatoradiatum line associated with Steve Nock of Ree Gardens. The name refers to the delta-shaped leaves selected in this line. In Anthurium, the genus name points to the tail-like spadix in the flower structure.
