How to Pollinate Anthurium | Plant 101

[@Planty-Mandy]

If you’re using pollen from the freezer, do you allow it to warm up first, or does it matter?

[@plantcollectormelbourne]

Hello lovely Mandy 👋 That’s actually such a great question - thanks for asking! If it’s room temp, the pollen will be more “active” compared to when it’s cold but I wouldn’t warm it up per say because it might cook the pollen. Once the pollen is on the inflorescence, I think it would naturally thaw out to the surrounding temperature so I don’t think there would be a significant difference and/or change the outcome 🤔

Would have been nice to see an actual pollination and even better the phases of the flower after pollination..

[@plantcollectormelbourne]

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any receptive flowers at the time
