light
Anthurium prefer bright, indirect light. Their thick, waxy leaves can tolerate some direct sunlight.
soil
This Aroid likes a well-drained, all-purpose potting soil with added bark and perlite. Combine 1 part all-purpose potting soil, 1 part orchid bark, 1 part perlite, 1/2 part charcoal, 1/2 part worm castings.
water
Keep soil evenly moist. Anthuriums do not like to dry out completely.
fertilizer
Feed weekly during periods of active growth; spring and summer.
tips and troubleshooting
Anthurium may produce aerial roots that can be misted, pushed into the soil, or cut off at soil level. Not all Anthuriums have a significant flower. These include varieties like superbum, radicans, cobra, and other “rare” varieties. If healthy and happy, Anthurium will bloom any time of the year. Anthurium thrive in high humidity.
