Care Guide

Light / Temperature

Bright indirect light is best for colorful, long-lasting flowers. Do not place in direct sunlight. Plants have a tendency to lean towards the sunlight, so rotate every few days to maintain upright habit.

Pruning

Pinch off expired blooms to encourage a longer flowering period. Plant is often tossed out after blooming because it will go through a dormant period. During this time, low temperatures, less light, and dry soil will help the Anthurium produce more spectacular flowers in the spring and summer. To propagate, plant leaf cuttings from new growth.

Level of Care

Needs a little extra care. Just be sure the plant is in bright indirect sunlight and never let the soil dry out. Prune off expired blooms to help the plant focus on new growth.

Soil

Anthuriums prefer a coarse, well-draining All-Purpose potting soil. To improve humidity, set on a tray of pebbles and water during the winter months.

Fertilizer

To get the best blooms, use a fertilizer that has a higher phosphorus number, and only fertilize when the plant is actively growing.
