Until recently very difficult to source, still very rare and always very stunning Anthurium wendlingeri G.M.Barroso is a pendent epiphyte form the section Porphyrochitonium. Leaves are spreading-pendent; petioles terete, leaf blades oblong, moderately thick, up to 80 cm long, acuminate at a apex, round to truncate at base; upper surface weakly velvety, obscurely and sparsely glandular-punctate, lower surface semi glossy, sparsely glandular-punctate.
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'.
