Anthurium -Red
- Anthuriums get their name from the Greek words “anthos” and “oura,” meaning “tail flower.”
- 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!
- These are simply aerial roots that would benefit from occasional misting.
- If you don’t like the look of these roots, you can cut them without hurting the plant.
- As your anthurium grows, place it in a bigger pot. Crowded roots will stunt the plant’s growth!
- When the flowers fade and you want to remove them, cut at the base of the flower stem, closest to the base of the plant.
