Hello I finally bought my 1st Anthurium plant today. I've wanted one for a long time. I just watched your video & I learned alot. Thank you for the wonderful information!12:28am New York time!

[@MMMPlants]

Thank you 😊

[@ashishkangaokar]

Anthurium (flamingo flower) plant is rather hardy than compared to its cousin Spathiphyllum. They have thick and dense roots. And it only needs a bright indirect sunlight for it to be happy, I water them only when the entire potting mix is completely dry, or I wait until its leaves show up a leaning posture indicating it needs water. All in all a very happy plant to keep.

[@MMMPlants]

Thanks a lot for sharing 😊

Nice information on Anthurium plant. Thank you. To save my plants from over watering , i think I'm under watering it.. n few leaves hv got cracks.. is cracking up due to under watering??

[@rehana5948]

Thanks so much for the info . I have read somewhere that anthuriums are epiphytes like orchids . I have potted this in orchid potting mix. Is it ok ? The plant is growing at a slow pace with no flowers yet .

[@Heidi-Beth]

😍 So pretty, I love mine. Two of my leaves have a little black on them? It does sit close to a window but it has shears so it doesn't get direct sun. Mine has flowered since I got it 4 months ago. Does it like to be root bound?

[@KM-mt5gx]

Well explained, thank you!

[@MMMPlants]

Thank you 🤩

[@KM-mt5gx]

That’s a beautiful specimen as well, I had a cluster of 3 stems in a nursery pot and I’ve divided them into a pot for each main stem. They have all given off either a new flower and a new leaf, or a new leaf. My question should I have potted the stem deeper so more Ariel roots are submerged or leave them sticking out with only the main root cluster under the soil. I would really like to make them all bigger and thicker like yours. Thanks again

[@hjbnew2009]

Hi I believe the placement is super important. If you are lucky to place it in the right place, it will bloom a lot. Thank you for the content. and video.

[@MMMPlants]

Thank you 😊

[@SeaBreeze2247]

Thank you-going to repot my two upset plants in terra cotta pots with the proper soil and hope they will forgive me. 🙂

[@MMMPlants]

They will 😊

[@christenr7365]

I have this plant and the stems that grow out of the pot are brown and old thick stems. They product leaves very small and red flowers here and there. I have it inside by my sliding deck doors but it gets alor of sun beaming in. Not sure if this is the issue? I water the soil when it’s dry. Please help!

[@Nisha-xw3gl]

Love how you are clear & full of info. Wanted to know where do you live ? also for indoor plants do we have to keep drain for the all the indoor plants ?

[@MMMPlants]

Thanks Nisha! I am in Adelaide, Australia.
Yes its good to keep a plate for water to drain out but the pot should not sit in the water as the plant might absorb water more than required through capillary action which is nothing but water absorbed by roots through soil from the bottom part.

[@padmamuktieh9694]

Very good information sir keep on updating I have some anthurium but not that healthy like your plant.

[@MMMPlants]

I hope this video helps you to keep yours happy too. I am sure yours will be very soon better than this 😊

[@user-fj2hk7xr7w]

My anthurium loves the shady spot I have it in. I grow like an orchid in coconut chips only and water every other day and can't remember the last time I fertilized. If you tend to overwater try fast draining wood chip medium.

[@muratyilmaz3262]

I bought an anthurium 2 weeks ago, it's pot's size was 1 liter. I've repotted it last week, it's new pot's size is 2.5 liters. I realized my mistake, the new pot is too big for my anthurium. Its going to stop my plant's growth.
I wonder if I repot it with a smaller pot(1.4 liters), would I damage my anthurium? Do you have any recommendation for me?

[@majidaattaplantscare4582]

Super 👍

[@MMMPlants]

Thank you 😊

[@glow1815]

I have one of this beautiful plant in our home. The direction for watering is says 6 ice cubes once a week. Which I thought it was strange but I do exactly as direction says. It does not look as beautiful as yours, I need to refresh the soil and cut off the flowers it's starting to die. I have in indoor. Thanks for the tips!

Thank you so much for such informative video ... I bought Anthurium for how beautiful it looks but was skeptical about its maintenance and was scared if I would kill it .. also I dont have a balcony and was guided that its indoor plant ..I have2 questions please if you could answer them then it would save me :)
1. I get indirect light from windows ( but its minimal ) so will it survive with just that ?
2. Terracotta pot is better or Ceramic Pot ??
Thanks much in advance !!!

[@MMMPlants]

Little light is not sufficient and I prefer terracotta pot

[@RajPereira-tt5ku]

Thanks for the notes .

[@MMMPlants]

Thanks 😊

[@bhartendra]

Also is there any video for different ways of propagating Anthuriums. Your videos were very crystal clear

[@MMMPlants]

[@susanphilip7482]

Hello bro,
I bought 2anthorium last week. and I repot it after 2-3 days leaves are dropping for one plant. Can u help me?

Can the bright light from windows is fine for this?

[@priyastefen]

I have not seen this plant this much height..😊

[@kiransistla6013]

Very informative. Can you tell how to care during Summers. There's no moist places in my house and no proper place for plant near bathrooms either because there's no sunlight in that area. Pls anyone. Thanks.

[@MMMPlants]

You can keep a tray of water underneath the pot

[@ronikasinha7546]

Can we use sea weed fertilizer in our anthurium plant

[@LiveAquarium-ym9fo]

Hello. Great vid! Can i use aquarium water to water the plant once a week?

Sometimes aquarium waters have lot of PH, I wouldn’t recommend

[@KM-mt5gx]

How old is your plant and how did the leaves get so big?

[@winakil1982]

Could you pls explain what you mean by indirect light?
My plant is inside the house but gets sunlight through closed windows.is this what you mean ?
Kindly explain.

[@MMMPlants]

Indirect means it gets light but not direct sun on it

[@sejalrana4403]

It is not possible to propagate using leaf

Sir,my anthurium got burnt due to the heat entering through the window glass. When i realised it, i shifted it inside the house.now it looks healthy,but no new leaves or flowers since then.since about a month. What do i do now.im very upset. Please advise.

[@MMMPlants]

Yes they do not like that heat, you can add some compost now that you have changed its place and hopefully it should thrive back 😊
