There are two forms of Anthurium moonenii Croat & E.G.Gonç: one and tri-lobed. The plants we have to offer have gorgeous, tri-lobed, textured, corrugated leaves and are definitely some of our favourite Anthuriums. Very rarely encountered in collections.
It is an apressed-climbing epiphyte. Petioles are erect-spreading to spreading, terete, sometimes weakly and narrowly sulcate, medium green, semi-glossy. Leaf blades are simple when young, becoming deeply 3-lobed, pendent when young then spreading-pendent and arching, sub coriaceous, semi-glossy. Primary lateral veins quilted-sunken above, prominently pleated-raised below; interprimary and tertiary veins in part sunken above, prominently raised below.
Named after Joep Moonen, a Dutch naturalist and rainforest explorer living in French Guiana.
The genus name Anthurium is derived form Greek ánthos "flower" + ourá "tail" + New Latin -ium -ium . A very literal translation of this would be 'flowering tail'.
