Anth. rotundistigmatum is a distinctive species from the wet forests of South America, known for its elegant growth habit and impressive foliage development potential. This species thrives in humid environments and is prized by collectors for its architectural appearance as it matures.

• Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the delicate young leaves.
• Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 18-26C (65-80F). Protect from cold drafts and temperature fluctuations.
• Humidity: Requires high humidity levels of 60-80%. Use a humidifier, pebble tray, or group with other tropical plants to maintain adequate moisture levels.
• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry. Ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
• Maintenance: As a baby plant, repot according to growth until it reaches medium size. Provide adequate water, light, and fertilizer, but use less than for adult plants to avoid damaging development.

Additional Notes:

Foliage Characteristics: Even as a seedling, this species shows promise of developing the characteristic large, oval-shaped leaves with deep sinuses. As it matures, the leaves will be supported by long, elegant petioles that can reach impressive lengths, often displaying attractive reddish coloration.
