Anthurium pallens

A small Central American Anthurium that climbs as an epiphyte, with short stems and usually pendent growth. It differs from the similar A. microspadix in its shorter branches and leaf blades that are acute to rounded at the base. Field data are thin, so treat it as a warm, humid, shaded rainforest epiphyte.
