Anthurium radicans, the trailing anthurium, is a species of flowering plant in the family Araceae.[2] A climber, it is native to wetter areas of eastern Brazil.[1] Its unusual flower morphology led to it being placed in its own section, Chamaerepium, but this has been refuted by molecular analysis.[3] Available from specialist nurseries, it is valued as an indoor ornamental for its trailing habit and attractive foliage.[2]
