    Loved this video it says it exactly as it is with Anthurium. Yes started out with the queen and no longer have her lol. It’s all a learning curve and plants are there to teach us the good and the bad. I’m now loving my little Anthurium collection, starting most of them off as seedlings, it’s so rewarding watching them grow from 2 leaved tiny babies into plants in their own right. 👍💚

    I love my philodendrons much more over my anthuriums but your videos have inspired me to venture into more anthurium plants…I recently have purchased a new Peru imported Anthurium Monster after I swore I would buy no more. My Queen is amazing and I’ve even propagated her but other than that I struggle with my Variegated Anthurium Pterodactyl 😓 She hates me. Her roots are AMAZING but she used to have many leaves and now only has one. And just stays like that now 😢 Mere is what I call her.

    I have both type of plants, and like both. They are very different. Like the variety of leaf shape philos have, but do like the compactness of Anthuriums. Not so fond of how ugly Anthurium leaves can get as they age, and the lack of leaves that can occur, but nothing is as beautiful, except the black velvet alocasia, as the dark velvety leaves of anthuriums.

    I'm Colombian. AKA Aeroid Heaven. I moved to Philadelphia and I'm just learning how to grow plants indoors. I know little about growing Anthuriums, other than they, just like Begonias, are finicky and they detest changes in growth conditions.
    You've empowered me. My goal for 2024 is to grow a couple of Anthuriums. Thank you for sharing your experience.

If you want to go, let me know and I'll make a few recommendations regarding places to visit that can offer guided hikes, a little bit of beach, a little bit of mountain, etc. We have everything from Caribbean and Pacific coastlines to snowy mountain peaks to desert.
