anthurium croatiana Anthurium pentaphyllum 'Costa Rica'The Anthurium pentaphyllum 'Costa Rica' is a distinctive and relatively rare occurrence within the genus. This form is characterized by its gracefully hand shaped (digitally divided) leaves and climbing growth form. It thus differs greatly from the typical 'velvet anthuriums' and is especially popular among lovers of botanical species and natural, less cultivated plant forms.

The Anthurium pentaphyllum 'Costa Rica' is a distinctive and relatively rare occurrence within the genus. This form is characterized by its gracefully hand-shaped (digitally divided) leaves and climbing growth form. It thus differs greatly from the typical 'velvet anthuriums' and is especially popular among lovers of botanical species and natural, less cultivated plant forms.

Origin

The species Anthurium pentaphyllum is widespread in Central and South America, including in Costa Rica, where this selected form originates. In the wild, it grows as a climbing plant along trees and shrubs in tropical rain forests, usually in shady, moist areas. Unlike many other species within the genus, it grows pentaphyllum with a more liana-like habit, hooking into its surroundings with aerial roots.

Characteristics

The leaves consist of five (sometimes three or seven) separate partial leaves that spring from a central petiole, similar to fingers on a hand. This digitally divided form is rare within the genus and gives the plant a distinctly tropical, airy appearance. The partial leaves are oblong, leathery and fresh green in color, with a slightly glossy surface. Older plants can climb up quickly with support, with aerial roots developing regularly along the stem. In bloom, the plant forms an inconspicuous inflorescence consisting of a slender spike with a narrow green bract.

Care

Light

Place the plant in bright, indirect light. Semi-shade is well tolerated, but adequate light promotes leaf development and compact growth.

Temperature

18-28 °C is ideal. Avoid cold snap and prolonged exposure to temperatures below 15 °C.

Substrate

Use an airy, rich substrate that drains well, such as a mix of bark, coconut chips, perlite and leaf compost. The plant benefits from a loose structure that allows air to pass through to the roots.

Humidity

A humidity of 60-80% is recommended. If the environment is too dry, the leaf edges may dry out, especially on young leaves. Suitable for greenhouse setups or rooms with humidification.

Nutrition

Give diluted aroids fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Over-fertilization is not necessary; this species is a moderate grower.

Watering

Allow the substrate to partially dry out between waterings. Preferably give demineralized water and avoid leaving the roots wet for long periods of time.

Flowering

Flowering is botanically interesting, but not the main focus of the plant. The inflorescence consists of a narrow cob with an elongated green bract. In older specimens, flowering may occur several times a year.

Great book but disappointing kindle experience
Format: Kindle
A must-read for anyone who wants to understand the troubled and racist history of voting rights in the US. My only complaint is that the Kindle version of this book messes up the footnotes. The great thing about reading on the Kindle is that you don't have to flip back and forth to check the footnote cites; you only have to click on them. Sadly, the footnotes aren't correct in the Kindle version of the book. They somehow were shifted by one, as I was able to confirm in my hardcover copy, completely ruining the experience if you wish to read more about a specific incident. This is inexcusable in my mind, but I won't hurt the rating for this book by taking off a star.

Activist history
Format: Hardcover
Anderson quite thoroughly explodes the myth of the rampant voter fraud claims that fuel the actual problem of rampant voter disenfranchisement, particularly aimed at non-whites. And, by extension, Anderson explodes the myth of the United States being a free and open democracy and shows us how much we still have to do to live up to the national image some of us like to think we put out to the world. From the illegal purging of voter registrations, to gerrymandering, to voter intimidation, Anderson offers up the facts of the racist policies that look to keep elections in the hands of white patriarchy and suppress its opponents. While Anderson sometimes resorts to some typical metaphors in her rhetoric (false comparisons to Stalin, for example, or Orwell name drops) that could too easily be cherry-picked by dull-minded opponents looking to poke holes in an otherwise fine case of what should be enraging us into action.

You will never look at voting the same again.
Format: Kindle
A well written, easy to understand, and eye opening book which details the problems with our current political system and the efforts to control the vote in order to keep the power and the money in the hands of the few. Well worth reading and will shift your view of voting and the difficulties many of our citizens face.

A must-read for every American
Format: Hardcover
This book is a must-read for every American. It starts as a historical lesson about voting rights and how they have evolved and devolved over the years and ends with a very detailed real time discussion of current voter suppression, gerrymandering, and election fraud. The greatest lesson I learned from it is that our voting experiences are absolutely determined by our zip codes. It is extremely relevant to what is happening today and in our very recent past. This book should be required reading in every high school and college American History, Civics and Government class un America.
