🔆 Light Requirements

Ideal Light: Bright, indirect sunlight helps it bloom profusely.
Tolerates: Medium light; may bloom less in lower light.
Avoid: Direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves and spathes.

💧 Watering Guidelines

When to Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.
Frequency: Every 5–7 days in warm months; reduce to 10–14 days in cooler months.
Important: Avoid waterlogging. Anthuriums are prone to root rot if left sitting in soggy soil.

🌾 Soil & Potting

Soil: A light, well-aerated mix such as orchid potting soil or a blend of peat, pine bark, and perlite.
Pot: Use a pot with good drainage — terra cotta or ceramic with holes is ideal.

🌱 Fertilization

Feed: Every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted high-phosphorus liquid fertilizer to encourage flowering.
Avoid: Overfertilizing, especially in winter.

✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

Prune: Remove spent flowers and yellowing leaves regularly to keep the plant tidy and healthy.
Cleaning: Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to maintain their glossy appearance and allow efficient photosynthesis.

🪴 Humidity & Temperature

Humidity: Prefers high humidity (above 60%). Mist regularly or place near a humidifier or pebble tray.
Temperature: Thrives in 18–28°C (65–82°F). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F).
