How to read these values
These care values are quick reference points for indoor growing. Use them as a guide, then adjust for pot size, substrate, temperature and how quickly the substrate dries.
For more detail, read the full product description or visit our Plant Care Guides.
- Light: level and approximate lux at leaf level.
- Watering: “% dry” shows how far the substrate should dry before watering again.
- Substrate: structure, drainage, moisture retention, base material and particle size.
- Temperature: “Ideal” shows the preferred range; “Avoid below” marks the cold-stress threshold.
- Humidity: target range; steady conditions usually matter more than exact numbers.
- Growth habit: how the plant grows, such as upright, climbing, trailing, clumping or rosette-forming.
- Support: whether a stake, pole or trellis is needed, optional or unnecessary.
- Growth speed: expected pace under suitable indoor conditions; use as a guide, not a promise.
- Max size indoors: realistic long-term indoor size under good conditions.
- Toxicity & safety: irritation, toxicity or physical hazards such as spines or bristles.
- Origin & habitat: native range, hybrid background or typical habitat where relevant.
- Outdoor growing: when a potted indoor plant can be placed outside and what outdoor protection it needs.
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.
