CARE

Light: Anthuriums prefer bright, indirect light. Place them near a window with filtered sunlight or provide artificial grow lights if needed. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

Watering: Water your Anthurium when the top inch of soil feels dry. It's important to maintain a balance, as over watering can lead to root rot. Ensure proper drainage by using a well-draining potting mix and pots with drainage holes.

Humidity: Anthuriums appreciate moderate to high humidity levels. Increase humidity by placing the plant on a tray filled with water and pebbles or by using a humidifier. Misting the leaves can also help maintain humidity.

Temperature: Anthuriums thrive in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Avoid exposing them to cold drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations.

Fertilization: Feed your Anthurium with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer). Follow the instructions on the fertilizer packaging for proper dilution and frequency.

Pruning: Remove any yellow or damaged leaves promptly to maintain the plant's health and appearance. You can also trim back leggy stems to encourage bushier growth.

Re-potting: Anthuriums generally don't require frequent re-potting. Re-pot only when the plant becomes root-bound, usually every 2-3 years. Use a slightly larger pot with fresh, well-draining soil.
