Care

• Use a fertilizer high in phosphorus to promote blooms in flowering varieties.
• Use a soil that drains well to avoid root rot, but holds enough moisture for root absorption.
• Don't be alarmed when you see roots growing from the stems! ...
• As your anthurium grows, place it in a bigger pot.
• Your anthurium will do best when the soil has a chance to dry out in between waterings.
• Too much or too frequent watering can lead to root rot, which could severely affect the long-term health of your plant.
• For best results, water your anthurium with just six ice cubes or a half cup of water once a week.
• In the jungle, anthuriums get a dappled dose of sunlight through the canopy.
• To mimic this at home, place your anthurium in a room that gets medium light.
• This helps bring out more blooms on their flower spikes.
• However, be sure to avoid direct sunlight as this can roast the leaves.
