I got a pretty Anthurim which I rescued from work when my co worker was about to throw it in the dumpster it was almost dead with droppy leaves and dead leaves. People at work thought that I was taking home a dead plant. Now I got it back to life and its blooming light pink with hot pink its different from the average you find in most stores
I just rescue purchased 2 at a pharmacy this week. They were dried out. I noted one had aerial roots so I had to get them. I soaked them for 15 mins in water and by next am they were back including flowers. So pretty. I've had Phals for a few years and before Valentine's Day bought 1 in bloom and 1 with buds only. My original got knocked over too many times by my cat and died. The last rescue plant has not had flower spike in 2 yrs but is huge. I'm working on improving conditions. I'm so glad I found this video and will try to make these happy. Thank you for this very informative video.
Growing mine, I have noticed there is a huge difference when you grow it in a very bright area. The size of the leaves and flowers is just so much bigger
Anthura. I work over there in Bleiswijk, Netherlands. A real AWESOME and GOOD place to work. I also have 2 anthurium plants. Got them from Anthura. A pink and a purple Anthurium plant. Yeah they are just AWESOME. Greetings from the Netherlands. 🥰😄
My great grandfather and grandfather cultivated these in the Caribbean. He had so many colours and varieties. Nothing like commercial growers however. I have descendants of his red ones!
When I was a kid living in the Philippines, my mother grew anthurium using coconut hush and charcoal only, no soil at all. They all strive very well. Then she used dried egg shells as fertilisers and water the plants from to time with rice water. I'm now living in Australia and I struggled how to grow anthurium, it's very frustrating. While back in the Phils growing anthurium is just like growing tomatoes. You throw the seeds and it grows perfectly fine.
I recently changed the soil of my plant to a blend for orchids as I noticed it had aerials (sp) like an orchid plants..and bloomed! It had not bloomed since I was gifted three years ago... this video confirmed my choice. Now if I can just get another one through propagation!
I just dunno but I really, really love this channel. Its like one of the MOST DECENT and MOST EDUCATIONAL VLOG ever on YT. Love you po! Sending love from Bukidnon, Philippines! 😘
Thank you, Summer. I just came across your video, having looked a few days ago on caring for these plants. Other sites we're a bit conflicting. You are a natural teacher, giving background, reasons for doing certain activities, and thorough, step-by-step instruction. All appreciated!
I love this variety of anthurium. I've been growing her for a few years and she's doing well, growing in my bathroom. I switched her into a terracotta pot because she was struggling in plastic and I'm so glad I did. She's coming back with a vengeance and I can't wait for all the blooms to fill in. Thanks for sharing such a great video as always Summer. Have a beautiful day! Thank you, from the bottom of my pot! 🍃🐞
Hi! You mentioned growing them in your bathroom, I’ve been considering this as I read the humidity is great for them. Does your bathroom have a window or do you just provide light for them when you turn the light on? Mine got a yellow spot on only one leaf, then the spot turned brown, with a yellow rim. Not sure if it has some sort of disease, or maybe I gave it too much water or light. I’m struggling with this plant! Lol Mine is in a terracota pot. I switched her since the moment I bought her. She was also in plastic.
I have a lot of variarities of anthuriums and i notice that the best fertilizer for anthuriums is osmocote... YES, OSMOCOTE! If you have this type of plants add some osmocote and you will have a lot of flowers!
I purchased my very 1st Anthurium. I was captivated by the colour & unique flower. I've had it 4 about 6 mo's & it stopped blooming. I have followed your advice & changed where it was. I've put it where it gets more indirect sunlight. I'm waiting to see the 1st bloom! :) Thank you.
I have a few growing in water in large vases and they love being in the water, Stems and leaves and flowers are quite firm. I change their water weekly. Gorgeous plants.
I have to thank my 'Plant One On Me' partner Sander, for helping me film. That takes a lot off my shoulders so I can focus on the edit. Thanks for saying so.
You are great! I do live with a "black" and a light pink one and I love love love them so much. They live in the rainforest kitchen and are soooo rewarding 🦩🦇
This is encouraging me to try again at an anthurium. My first try was unsuccessful... now I’m thinking the soil from the place I bought it wasn’t as aerated as yours.... thanks for a fun video... now I want one to divide up... I’d love to try that.
I had one with huge leaves. Gave it away. I fertilized it with fish emulsion often and gave it bright indirect light. It was super healthy and awesome.
Thank you for this video! I just purchased one last week. I've only been a plant mom for 4 months but have managed to buy 15 new babies 🤩 You answered one of the questions that most videos don't address directly... fertilizing! I'm going to purchase orchid fertilizer and use it for my Anthurium and African Violet.
Same for me, I have always struggled in the past with plants when I was younger but I just learned I am not good with croton plants and some succulents... I just moved recently and bought my first plant again about 6 months ago and I am now on #8, including an Anthrium Upgrade, all my planties are doing so well and I couldn't be more proud of myself, it just so rewarding when you see new growth and they are all so beautiful to look at!!! I have mine in a plastic pot with regular soil but she is thriving so well, when I choose to repot again I'll come back to this video because it answered alot of questions for me too!! Good luck with all your babies!
Just want to say thank you for producing such thorough content. 💚 My anthuriums have been getting unruly and you’ve inspired me to repot them, as well as help me understand them on new levels (:
My mother's anthurium grows in southwestern windowsill last 10 years. It is a bit scorched in summer, but generally that thing gigantic and blooming non stop.
It's amazing to see so many varieties of antherium in your garden I have a few which Do well i would like to know how to get in touch with you from Jamaica you are doing an excellent job thanks for your info
My normal mix for anthurium is sphagnum moss moss mixed with ordinary potting soil. Does the job perfectly. Don't overwater, you would rather be on the underwater side. Grab the soil. The soil mix should not stick on your hands. The soil should crumble down away from hands but not feel desert dry or sticky moist. Just in between that. It should not stick on your skin. The key to anthurium is stable room temperature (no sudden fluctuations - it can acclimate a good range of temperature ) and air circulation (a window slightly open) but not dry stale air. The darker/ greener the foliage, the less sunlight it needs. The best way is to try different areas of the house. Anthuriums love it when there is air circulation. Not a blizzard. Just so it knows it with nature. Consider where you live. Ie tropical vs wintery areas. Because this will dictate how quickly the soil becomes desert dry. Water only when it becomes dry. The pointy part will go brown if left dry too long. I always leave a stick in the soil. I pull it out to determine how dry the soil way under. Even if top soil is dry and the stick feels moist still. Do not water. It is Happy underneath. Hope that helps. And one more thing. Grab a wet wipe or moist cloth. And dampen and clean those leaves and flowers. By wiping, you are letting them breathe (photosynthesis) The casual touching and movement of the plant is the BEST way of preventing any potential pest. How can pest take over if you are disturbing infestation by wiping it casually. Think about it. Be gentle with new leave unfurling tho.
Just today, purchased an A. Andraeanum ‘Black Beauty,’ ...love them. I’m one of the many ppl bitten by the aroid “bug”! Anthuriums are a bit like fancier philodendrons to me. If ever I go to the nursery, and there aren’t many philodendron, I just look around; anthurium, epipremnum, syngonium, zantedeschia, spathiphyllum, diffenbachia, aglaeonema, homalomena...! All aroids.
I love these type of videos! You actually go through and demonstrate everything. As a novice plant mum, this helps so much. I’ve never purchased any of these type of plants but will try now. Maybe it will give me practice for another I’d really like to own one day. The Dorayaki. I’m assuming the care is the same??
I'm glad this was helpful. I'll be doing more in-depth care guides. I think that feels right after rifling through the "365 Days of Plants" project, which just touched upon the plant care around the edges. And I wasn't familiar with the Dorayaki cultivar actually? I assumed it was a dessert. haha. (The name refers to a bean cake I think).... But the more velvet-leaf varieties grow more in the understory on the margins of the rainforests vs. as on trees as epiphytes higher up, so I would keep that in mind as far as lighting goes.
@@summerrayneoakes thank you for this video. I have been given anthurium plant but the young leaves have started drying out. The pot has no drainage and I do not know how often I should water it.
So beautiful! I love these in an office environment! Thanks for letting us know that they are like orchids in their substrate and fertilizing needs! I overwatered and killed my last one - now i know why---too peaty soil!
Mine has never bloomed again, have had it maybe 3-4 years now. I fertilize it sometimes, not regularly. But this spring I moved it to more sunnier side of the apartment. Still no flowers. Last place it was in north/east light, now its about south facing window. It keeps growing new leaves through these years, but slooowly.. Not much progress, even it has been now like 6 months in better light. (and it's been summer where I live, now turnign to fall.) Its still the same pace. I'm definetly gonna use next time these orchid fertilizer and repot it to more airy soil! Let's see if that helps. I don't know what more can I do..maybe fertilize more...?
mine has never bloomed either and I do not know what to do... I moved it into my bathroom because I know they like humidity maybe try spraying the leaves or putting pebbles on the top of the soil? Lol idk I'm gonna try orchid fertilizer too and different soil.
@@ainsleymate8155 Hi repot with the soil mix Summer suggested & use the orchid fertilizer, keep your soil moist, not wet/soggy and a warm lit area. God bless you! 🙏
I found one of these at a local nursery for $20. It was HUGE! The leaves were easily twice the size of my hand! I I didn’t know they could grow this large!
Yes ! I have one that is almost 10 years , it survived all kind of bad culture conditions because when i got it i didn't know anything about plants . Now it's thriving and is huge, the leaves have a wonderful shape when they get older !! Love this plant !!
I've been subscribed to you for years now and your videos never pop onto my personal page. I double checked today as this video was on my feed and I'm defintely still subscribed still. Ty for the video as I did need it lol
I love topicals!!!!! I have Elephant Ears & one banana plant 🪴 & Monsterdas ( 2) & a Varigated rubber plant & moth orchids (6) & 1 pineapple 🍍 plant & (4) ferns & a money tree & numerous succulents & cacti & today I just purchased a red Flamingo plant 🪴 😀. Thank you for the helpful information 😊 !!!!
Just purchased my first one today so I am taking this all in. I am so excited. It is a beautiful plant and I don't want to destroy it. I do well with humans (I'm a nurse} but plants are often a different case. I tend to do to much as a general rule so.... here's hoping.
Hi Summer! Thanks for another informative video. I love your content! I have 2 questions: 1. Is it possible the anthruium can bloom once and never again? Mine only grows leaves. I only ever had 1 bloom. 2. Can you do a video on how to fix chlorosis in plants? I've been seeing it on my pileas and I dont know how to amend the soil to fix it. Thank you:)
Hi! I have been having issues with watering my Anthuriums and I was hoping you would touch on watering tips. How would you recommend that I water them? They seem to hate getting watered. Even if I wait 3-4 weeks to water them and then add water I still get yellowing leaves?! Any suggestions? Thank you for the information in the video!
I am assuming I will need to order an Anthurium on-line since all of the Nurseries in my area are closed for the winter (8b Springfield Oregon, USA.) and we don't have any Floral Shops nearby. I worked in a Floral Shop gosh...35 yrs ago and loved it but didn't earn enough to make a living so Plan B; I became an Accountant working for City Government. Anyway, back in the 80's we used a lot of Anthuriums and Carnations; it was before young beginning certified Florists (I took Floriculture classes at a college) were allowed to do many 'An Original Design by..' arrangements. Up until then you were given a "recipe" prepared by the big floral companies and told to use specific flowers that were on the lower end of the budget, or a better priced arrangement could include more of the Tropicals. Your video sure took me back to some fond memories, Thank you : D
I have 5 or 6 burned leaves. Can I cutthose off as new green leaves are growing. And if so, where do I cut, the bottom of the stem or just below the leaf?
YAY! I had actually brought in a dying pigeon on the side of the road into my home during doing this video, and it started to really thrash about while I was repotting, so it was harder for me to get into the mood! Glad that didn't affect the video too much :)
the way you mix your soil , I expected you to bake at 250 for 30 min and pull out a batch of cookies LOL. Really great video, VERY informative. I just got home with my first two Anthuriums (or Anturio as it is called in spanish), I got a white and a deep purple.... looking forward to putting your knowledge to use. Thank you and keep up the great efforts!
I realised you did not water the re pot plants, should I add water for them ? I have killed 3 pots of these beautiful plants =( but I am not giving up!
My anthurium lives in water and have flowered while in it. I tried putting it in soil but seems to die. I have tried it doing this 3 times so decided to just put them back in water. It has a long single stem, can I cut it? Will it root back? What can I feed it?
Hi! Great video. I have a question about mine. It was given to me by a woman from Malaysia. She cut it while there on vacation. The jar of water its in now is how I got it. She told me it can live in this jar forever. And she thought the flower was pinkish. Can you help me???
So i just discovered Korean birthday flower thing. It's an flower for every birthday and my flower is supposed to be Flamingo Flower. When you said "when one blooms fade, the other bounces right out" It's remind me of my hobbies. Jumping one to another like it was normal. I guess i found my flower
Hi summer! Winter is coming to Canada super soon and we've had to bring our plants indoors. I was wondering if you could do a tip and tricks video about semi-Hydroponics? Fungal gnats indoors is nuts hahaha.
thanks thanks thank U! its such a lovely reminder and makes me appreciate more... We are so wrapped up with chasing the instagram exotic authurium (which cause increase $$ and totally neglect the common genre). Such good tips about the care. And Love that you inserted those lovely field trips shots which of cos as a true fan! I watched all of them. Kinda make me want to re watch some of them esp Bill in Silver Krone, such a sweet guy! with his protector dogs :) :) This is such a common house plant which our grandmas / mas used to have as decor plant/flowers or pot plants. Am really glad you are bringing the attention back to them! ;) :)
Hello Summer, My husband bought me an Anthurium from a produce store 2 weeks ago. It is blooming nice. Not a large plant but good medium size. The soil is very hard and I know that it needs to be repotted but it is now getting cooler. It is in the house so can it be repotted or wait till spring? Love your Chanel.
I find these plants very temperamental with light. I have a white one and depending on how much light it gets, the flowers can be bright shiny white or ugly smeared green.
Hi Summer, thanks for this video, would you recommend repotting/propagating Anthurium even in fall or winter, or it would be best to wait for spring? Thanks!
Hi, I love your home garden soo much and you inspire me a lot, I do want to know if you can suggest me about the plants and lighting in my home ? I don’t know how to approach you but I would love to speak with you personally with some of the questions I have
I just propagated one of these!!! So beautiful! I didn't know they were related to peace plans as well. I'm going to put them right next to each other in my house!
Hi! I just bought my first anthurium flamingo today and I wonder if getting it placed about 8 to 10 feet from a sunny south window is a good choice? The room is very bright, and I have light sheers; is that enough light for this plant? Thank you so much for your videos! 😀
I never fertelise my plants lol. ive got 6 flamingo in my workspace 3 white 3 red. The red once keep blooming the white onces take their time. Its my number one easy plant. Light spot water once per week i sprat them with water once perweek but they can live without.
Its very helpful to watch the repotting and see the roots being covered cause i confused myself into thinking some of the roots needed to be exposed like an orchid. epiphytic.. Mine were taken by spider mites....sad day!
I've seen them attached to rocks for sale in stores-completely exposed as well. So they are quite adaptable. But I would imagine that if the roots have been potted in potting medium-transitioning them to a new way of growing will be a tad more challenging.

I am struggling with mine. You make it look so easy. I think it's the temperature part I think. The information shared is highly appreciated. Thank you.
Hi there, i love this beautiful plant and it is blooming right now but now i am noticing some leaves are getting brown by the edges, so please let me know what could i do? Thank you so much for all the information how to reporting. 👍❤️
I have mine outside since inside they hated it, each time I tried I failed in providing enough light, even when outside in winter here is -4celsius, they live happily in semishade at my patio, squeezed with a bunch of ferns and cane begonias and the like, creating a microclimate. I have an orange Anthurium Scherzerianum and various andreanum, chocolate, lila, red with white stripes and red. All lovely. They are not native to buenos aires but they seems to adapt ok.
Greetings ! I purchased a Flamingo Flower. Upon purchase all the flowers were a bright Scarlet. When I brought her home the flowers turned a deep dark Red. I have her in front of an East window. Indirect light. I don't know what I did wrong for the flowers to turn dark. However, on a positive note. One new flower remains bright Scarlet. Humidity is good as I live in Florida. Should I take her away from the window to see what results I get ? I have her planted in soil w/ bark, Perlite & Volcanic Pumice for good drainage. Any suggestions would be helpful. Cheers ! George
Hi! I got a plant from my friend that I´m trying to save. We didn´t know what plant was it and I just discovered it´s this beauty. I want to ask if it´s bad for it to be in wind as I´m keeping it by open window. I live in Cambodia so I have open window and fan on all the time. Thank you for answer!
Mine has stopped producing flowers. I currently have it next to my kitchen sink on the counter by a SE facing window. Should I change its location? What light is best?
My wife JUST Bought me one!!!! I've been wanting to get back into planting for years!!!! Thank You SO much! 😊😊😊
I got a pretty Anthurim which I rescued from work when my co worker was about to throw it in the dumpster it was almost dead with droppy leaves and dead leaves.

Picked one up from home depot.Super easy to grow. Have one thriving in the bathroom, very low light
Beautiful plant. The automated production of them, in the Netherlands, is crazy! :)
Thank you! You explained why my plant hasn’t flowered in over 5 years, I also needed to divide it. So this video helped a lot!
Hi Alexis! Once you divided the plant, did the flowers grow back?
Mine died back a couple of months ago but miraculously put out a new leaf. Just in time for this video haha
It's alive! It's ALIVE!
Happy to see this on Anthurium care. I have loved them for so long and have about 6 in my collection. Great care tips!

How can pest take over if you are disturbing infestation by wiping it casually. Think about it.

Not much progress, even it has been now like 6 months in better light. (and it's been summer where I live, now turnign to fall.) Its still the same pace. I'm definetly gonna use next time these orchid fertilizer and repot it to more airy soil! Let's see if that helps. I don't know what more can I do..maybe fertilize more...?
mine has never bloomed either and I do not know what to do... I moved it into my bathroom because I know they like humidity maybe try spraying the leaves or putting pebbles on the top of the soil? Lol idk I'm gonna try orchid fertilizer too and different soil.
@@ainsleymate8155 Hi repot with the soil mix Summer suggested & use the orchid fertilizer, keep your soil moist, not wet/soggy and a warm lit area. God bless you! 🙏
hi summer! I've been wanting to get into flowering and non flowering anthurium. Thanks for this video!!
I found one of these at a local nursery for $20. It was HUGE! The leaves were easily twice the size of my hand! I I didn’t know they could grow this large!
Yes ! I have one that is almost 10 years , it survived all kind of bad culture conditions because when i got it i didn't know anything about plants .
Now it's thriving and is huge, the leaves have a wonderful shape when they get older !! Love this plant !!
I've been subscribed to you for years now and your videos never pop onto my personal page. I double checked today as this video was on my feed and I'm defintely still subscribed still. Ty for the video as I did need it lol
So glad to find this channel today. Very clear and precise explanation on every topic. Just subscribed too. Thank you very much from UK. Excellent!
Good video Summer, but I did not hear anything about watering? Did I miss it?
Hi. I would like to see video about which plants likes to grow in self watering pots. Thank you.
Summer thank you for your video, but did I miss watering tips for this plant???
Use your brain
@@RashidASatti yikes we don’t tolerate that kind of hostility here
@@RashidASatti not cool
@@RashidASatti so rude, that is a valid concern.
It’s the “ultimate care guide” without watering 😅🤷🏼♀️
I love topicals!!!!!
I have Elephant Ears & one banana plant 🪴 & Monsterdas ( 2) & a Varigated rubber plant & moth orchids (6) & 1 pineapple 🍍 plant & (4) ferns & a money tree & numerous succulents & cacti & today I just purchased a red Flamingo plant 🪴 😀.
Thank you for the helpful information 😊 !!!!
Just purchased my first one today so I am taking this all in. I am so excited. It is a beautiful plant and I don't want to destroy it. I do well with humans (I'm a nurse} but plants are often a different case. I tend to do to much as a general rule so.... here's hoping.
Hi Summer! Thanks for another informative video. I love your content! I have 2 questions:
1. Is it possible the anthruium can bloom once and never again? Mine only grows leaves. I only ever had 1 bloom.
2. Can you do a video on how to fix chlorosis in plants? I've been seeing it on my pileas and I dont know how to amend the soil to fix it.
Thank you:)
Just received this beauty for Mother’s Day. I love it! Thank you, this video helped a lot. 😊
Is it possible to get a new plant by planting dried anthurium seeds? Can you tell me how to plant?
Best content quality on plant related youtube channel! A fan since 2018. 🧡💚
Dear Summer, many thanks for your lovely and informative video. Could you indicate how much and how often to water the anthuriums? Thanks!
Hi! I have been having issues with watering my Anthuriums and I was hoping you would touch on watering tips. How would you recommend that I water them? They seem to hate getting watered. Even if I wait 3-4 weeks to water them and then add water I still get yellowing leaves?! Any suggestions? Thank you for the information in the video!
I was wondering whether it was me, who did not catch how these flowers like to be watered. But it seems it was not properly explained in 13min video
I am assuming I will need to order an Anthurium on-line since all of the Nurseries in my area are closed for the winter (8b Springfield Oregon, USA.) and we don't have any Floral Shops nearby. I worked in a Floral Shop gosh...35 yrs ago and loved it but didn't earn enough to make a living so Plan B; I became an Accountant working for City Government. Anyway, back in the 80's we used a lot of Anthuriums and Carnations; it was before young beginning certified Florists (I took Floriculture classes at a college) were allowed to do many 'An Original Design by..' arrangements. Up until then you were given a "recipe" prepared by the big floral companies and told to use specific flowers that were on the lower end of the budget, or a better priced arrangement could include more of the Tropicals. Your video sure took me back to some fond memories,
Thank you : D
Now Anthurium 's are selling for their leaves, crazy.
I have 5 or 6 burned leaves. Can I cutthose off as new green leaves are growing. And if so, where do I cut, the bottom of the stem or just below the leaf?
All this time, I didn’t know you could just split the root mass 🤯 Might actually pick one up someday 😁
Oh glad that the demo was helpful.
Wow nice Anthurium flowers
Informative vide
Thanks for sharing
It WAS throughly fun to watch!
YAY! I had actually brought in a dying pigeon on the side of the road into my home during doing this video, and it started to really thrash about while I was repotting, so it was harder for me to get into the mood! Glad that didn't affect the video too much :)
Summer Rayne Oakes You have a kind heart. You didn’t look distracted at all by it.
Just found a free one set out on the road:) it’s my lucky day
ITS MINE! GIVE IT BACK
omg i found one without a pot in the trash at home depot
Wow! You just answered every question I had about anthurium.👍👍😊
the way you mix your soil , I expected you to bake at 250 for 30 min and pull out a batch of cookies LOL. Really great video, VERY informative. I just got home with my first two Anthuriums (or Anturio as it is called in spanish), I got a white and a deep purple.... looking forward to putting your knowledge to use. Thank you and keep up the great efforts!
I realised you did not water the re pot plants, should I add water for them ? I have killed 3 pots of these beautiful plants =( but I am not giving up!
Always happy when u upload a new video!!! Gets me excited 🌷🌷🌷
These videos are really, really good
I killed my first Anthurium by over watering. Recently purchased another plant and so far so good, so this video came in handy. Thank you.
Hi Summer! Thank you for this wonderful video. If you could please get more into watering for those of us who cannot figure it out by ourselves yet.
I love how you use a fancy punch bowl for the soil. So classy :)
My anthurium lives in water and have flowered while in it. I tried putting it in soil but seems to die. I have tried it doing this 3 times so decided to just put them back in water. It has a long single stem, can I cut it? Will it root back? What can I feed it?
I have mine in water too 😊 it’s growing in Leca so far doing great 😊
Hi! Great video. I have a question about mine. It was given to me by a woman from Malaysia. She cut it while there on vacation. The jar of water its in now is how I got it. She told me it can live in this jar forever. And she thought the flower was pinkish. Can you help me???
So i just discovered Korean birthday flower thing. It's an flower for every birthday and my flower is supposed to be Flamingo Flower. When you said "when one blooms fade, the other bounces right out" It's remind me of my hobbies. Jumping one to another like it was normal. I guess i found my flower
Just put mine in leca. I wish you had a vid on that. I 1000% trust your plant wisdom ✨️
Hi summer! Winter is coming to Canada super soon and we've had to bring our plants indoors. I was wondering if you could do a tip and tricks video about semi-Hydroponics? Fungal gnats indoors is nuts hahaha.
This is encouraging me to get an anthurium! Now to find the perfect one ☺️
thanks thanks thank U! its such a lovely reminder and makes me appreciate more... We are so wrapped up with chasing the instagram exotic authurium (which cause increase $$ and totally neglect the common genre). Such good tips about the care. And Love that you inserted those lovely field trips shots which of cos as a true fan! I watched all of them. Kinda make me want to re watch some of them esp Bill in Silver Krone, such a sweet guy! with his protector dogs :) :) This is such a common house plant which our grandmas / mas used to have as decor plant/flowers or pot plants. Am really glad you are bringing the attention back to them! ;) :)
Hello Summer, My husband bought me an Anthurium from a produce store 2 weeks ago. It is blooming nice. Not a large plant but good medium size. The soil is very hard and I know that it needs to be repotted but it is now getting cooler. It is in the house so can it be repotted or wait till spring? Love your Chanel.
I have yet to try growing this flower....Thanks for your video Madam
I am one of the antherium lover. I thankyou very much for making it on the market display. Please help me how to make my own garden too.
Thank you so much. I made mistake and planted it in wrong soil. Thanks again for good advice.
I find these plants very temperamental with light. I have a white one and depending on how much light it gets, the flowers can be bright shiny white or ugly smeared green.
Hi Summer, thanks for this video, would you recommend repotting/propagating Anthurium even in fall or winter, or it would be best to wait for spring? Thanks!
Hi, I love your home garden soo much and you inspire me a lot, I do want to know if you can suggest me about the plants and lighting in my home ? I don’t know how to approach you but I would love to speak with you personally with some of the questions I have
I just propagated one of these!!! So beautiful! I didn't know they were related to peace plans as well. I'm going to put them right next to each other in my house!
Just bought a small one today and this video is great...so thanks a lot! Wish me luck 😏
Missed info about drainage and watering after repotting. Thanks !
Hi! I just bought my first anthurium flamingo today and I wonder if getting it placed about 8 to 10 feet from a sunny south window is a good choice? The room is very bright, and I have light sheers; is that enough light for this plant? Thank you so much for your videos! 😀
I never fertelise my plants lol. ive got 6 flamingo in my workspace 3 white 3 red. The red once keep blooming the white onces take their time. Its my number one easy plant. Light spot water once per week i sprat them with water once perweek but they can live without.
Its very helpful to watch the repotting and see the roots being covered cause i confused myself into thinking some of the roots needed to be exposed like an orchid. epiphytic.. Mine were taken by spider mites....sad day!
I've seen them attached to rocks for sale in stores-completely exposed as well. So they are quite adaptable. But I would imagine that if the roots have been potted in potting medium-transitioning them to a new way of growing will be a tad more challenging.

I really find your videos very informative and the videos are incredible!
I am struggling with mine. You make it look so easy. I think it's the temperature part I think. The information shared is highly appreciated. Thank you.
can you grow aanthurium in water
Hi there, i love this beautiful plant and it is blooming right now but now i am noticing some leaves are getting brown by the edges, so please let me know what could i do?
Thank you so much for all the information how to reporting. 👍❤️
I have mine outside since inside they hated it, each time I tried I failed in providing enough light, even when outside in winter here is -4celsius, they live happily in semishade at my patio, squeezed with a bunch of ferns and cane begonias and the like, creating a microclimate. I have an orange Anthurium Scherzerianum and various andreanum, chocolate, lila, red with white stripes and red. All lovely. They are not native to buenos aires but they seems to adapt ok.
Greetings ! I purchased a Flamingo Flower. Upon purchase all the flowers were a bright Scarlet. When I brought her home the flowers turned a deep dark Red. I have her in front of an East window. Indirect light. I don't know what I did wrong for the flowers to turn dark. However, on a positive note. One new flower remains bright Scarlet. Humidity is good as I live in Florida.
Should I take her away from the window to see what results I get ?
I have her planted in soil w/ bark, Perlite & Volcanic Pumice for good drainage.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Cheers !
George
Perfect timing, i think i nearly killed mine...started googling possible problem and solutions yesterday 🌺🌻🌼🌞
Hi! I got a plant from my friend that I´m trying to save. We didn´t know what plant was it and I just discovered it´s this beauty. I want to ask if it´s bad for it to be in wind as I´m keeping it by open window. I live in Cambodia so I have open window and fan on all the time.
Thank you for answer!
Mine has stopped producing flowers. I currently have it next to my kitchen sink on the counter by a SE facing window. Should I change its location? What light is best?
Lovely vedio. I'm a new subscriber to your channel from Sydney.
Loves anthurim. Now I can repot my plant. Thanks for sharing.
