Anthurium fraseri

A very poorly known Anthurium endemic to Ecuador, known essentially from an 1886 type collection in 'subtropical forest' on the slopes of Chimborazo. Nothing specific about its habit or conditions has been published that we could reach, so these targets are generalised from Andean cloud-forest anthuriums.

Where it grows wild

The only label says subtropical forest on Chimborazo; the habit is not recorded. Epiphytic growth is assumed because it is the commonest habit for Andean anthuriums.

No elevation recorded; 'subtropical forest' on Chimborazo's western slopes suggests roughly 1500–2500 m.
