@@plantgayforlife you are chaotic energy and I love it. (I was trying to be smutty in an effort to make someone smile in my original comment, but I see that there's no need and I apologise. Being autistic makes it harder to know where the ok like is :s)
Finally! This is the planty content I've been looking for! My humidity has been in the 20s and 30s this winter and I'm not about to plug in humidifiers for each plant. THANK YOU!
Your anthurium black swan is STUNNINGGGG and so so dark! 😍💙🖤 all of your anthuriums are beautiful 🥹 been watching your channel for awhile but just realized I wasn’t subscribed 🙄🤦🏽♀️ fixed that! 😂🫶🏽
the content that the internet needs. so much scaremongering about when it comes to anthuriums. 10000% humidity etc. they don't need any of the fancy stuff to thrive. adequate watering & light is the big "secret" (there are a few varieties out there that can't exist below 80% humidity but they are not very common). i feel like the scene needs a bit of myth busting :) i'm even gonna say that they are the easiest to import, even at baby sizes.
A lot of that fear mongering was and is just gatekeeping to prevent the masses from buying a plant (growing and propping and selling it inevitably down the road) and tanking the high value plants. The truth is there are hacks to successfully grow virtually anything without owning a greenhouse!
I’m always so scared of root rot and often blame low humidity for crispy edges. I think maybe I’m under watering. I think I’ll try an extra drink for them. Thank you. 😊 Plant gay for life 🙏😉
Yes! If you’re allowing them to dry out in between waterings try keeping the moisture as consistent as possible and see if that helps! Some anthuriums tolerate drying out a little, others require persistent moisture
First - I love your channel! Def my top 3 with Kaylee Allen and... well, top 2! I love your content and definitely enjoy your style. You make me laugh out loud and learn at the same time. WIN WIN! 2- YOu have inspired me to get my queens out of their high humidity glass house. I have killed so many in there, time to try ambient conditions! All my other anthuriums are out in my living room, no humidifier, pon, no drainage holes. Thank you!!!
Just got into anthuriums and have watched so many contradicting care videos but yours actually have some science sense to it or or at least I think so 😂Keep em coming 👏
I am wondering if the terrarium was due to no air flow? When we think of it in nature they have constant air flow. I have a fan running all the time in their room so far so good. 🤞🏻
all your anthuriums look stellar but i'm obsessed with the carla and the antolakii. I'll be on the lookout for an antolakii now. 4 out 5 of my anthurium babies are spending the winter in low humidity. they don't really push out leaves rn but i really like watching the roots grow
Keep their roots hydrated, the air warm(above 65f) and the light bright and they should keep growing through winter! Mine never seem to slow down even with the dip in humidity, which leads me to believe it’s just not as important as everyone thought😉and Antolakii I’ve noticed has been decreasing in price so we should start seeing more of them on the market this year!
Well, Jake! Thanks again for my anthurium garden. Recently added a tiny tiny Cupulispathum - because of being enchanted by your Cupulispathum. (from your early videos….drainage holes…largest plant/glass vase). It is Thriving and gorgeous. (Such a big 😊) By the way, years ago I got a “Fingers” anthurium… it struggled for such a long time, but didn’t check out. I decided to try transferring the plant to the no drainage method I had Just learned of - from your video, Jake. It Woke up! And GREW for the first time in years! It certainly is living its best life. We both thank you!
I adore you!! ❤ Also - I would pay for humidity in the 40s! Currently the RH in my home is sitting at a solid 7!! I’m in Colorado Springs - at around 6900’ above sea level - and girl….WE ARE PARCHED!! 😢😂 Thanks for another great video, sugar!!
@@plantgayforlife I make sure to warn all visitors to start hydrating a few days before they arrive! I lost so many plants when we moved here from the east coast and they couldn’t adapt 😭 I truly believe that none of my east coast planty friends have any idea how very hydrated they actually are!! I’d cry about it …but you know… need to retain the moisture!! 🙈😘
I love this video! U remind me so much of my circle..jis cray cray lol. I live in Canada so my humidity is also lowish so its refreshing to see this. Cuz im never buying a himidifier
So meaty 😂 Great tips. Love the way you describe drainage and how reservoirs provide humidity as it evaporates. BVAP did sound cooler. Good to know about how cooler weather impact the color of emergent leaves. I am growing anthuriums similar to the ones you grew from seed. I’ve long forgotten the name but I love it so. Another favorite is my Anthurium longissimilobum.
Your collection is fabulous. I only have a vittarifolium but I’m definitely looking to get more anthuriums this year. Gotta sell more props to afford it. 😂
One of the best parts about collecting plants is that if you can grow them well and prop them, you can sell them and use the cash to buy more and not have to spend any extra money from your paycheck 🤑
From seed! Those browniis. Amazing! They look a lot like decipiens. It’s a great and easy plant. Long petioles and sprawls but vigorous and beautiful and easy to grow. Also has red in the centre. If you like those ones maybe decipiens might be another interesting one.
They are both from the same section Belolonchium, what I refer to as the GIANT anthuriums. Anthuriums in that section are mostly terrestrial and can get massive be try quickly!😁
@@plantgayforlifethanks so much for that info. I think I like that section. I mean who can deny the size. Gonna try crossing some when I build up a few. Thanks again. You’re awesome and please keep going with your great channel 🌿
@@plantgayforlifegosh sorry to ping you again but I would love a deep dive into Anthurium sections if you were interested in doing a video about that. I got the Croat et al paper about it and maybe that’s the answer. But if you have more info in it that would be ace to know. I know you do lots of plants but see you as an expert on anthuriums. For the feckless anthurium grower like me who wants to geek out with breeding, it would be great to know your take - if that strikes you as a good vid topic some time. 🌿
Mine antheriums are getting normal air. Have no money nor room for a cabinet. Btw, where do you get those vessels from? I need something big like that .
christine kobzeff grows in the desert! Check out her channel. She grows a lot of anthuriums in SUPER dry conditions. The key for most humidity loving plants is the amount of moisture to the roots:)
And they’re WRONGO!!! They say you need high humidity because it works for them. And since anthuriums are tropical, of course they CAN thrive in high humidity. The problem is high humidity alone is just one ingredient to the cocktail. In high humidity, you also need more airflow to prevent fungal infections, a less frequent watering schedule since they will be more hydrated from the air, and a much more aerated growing medium so the roots can have more access to air. If I used a “chunky aroid mix” as you always here (with big pieces of bark and perlite etc) that is gonna dry out wayyy too fast in my environment, which is 25%-55% humidity year round. So it depends on your environment and ambient conditions. 😉
If u have a humidifier, why is a much more aerated growing medium necessary? The roots will get more air, but why is that necessary? I dont see that. Apart from that I agree its part of the cocktail, but isn't everything?
@@lucasvermeulen4454 the short answer: plants transpire more in lower humidity, so they will dry out quicker. the full answer: it's all about compensation. most of us don't water our aroids every day. that would kill them. but the most popular aroids originate in the tropics where it rains every day. so where is the logic in that? they are growing in the ground which has endless drainage, or growing on rocks or trees which provide ample aeration amidst all of that rain. so they're drying out quickly and don't rot. when you water a potted aroid, that substrate is going to retain moisture and the roots are going to be sitting in stagnant moisture for a period of time. this is why we can't use garden soils for our indoor plants. they are way too moisture retentive because they are made for outdoor gardens, where water can drain infinitely through the earth. growing media for potted plants is always more aerated so it can dry out faster to prevent root rot. now you have to take into consideration a plant's transpiration rate. as the humidity of the air increases, the plant's transpiration rate decreases. which means if a plant is growing in a greenhouse where the humidify is 80%, and you take the plant out and move it to a room where the humidity is 40%, it's going to transpire more and dehydrate quicker, requiring water more frequently than it did in the greenhouse. having a medium more moisture retentive in a dryer environment keeps the plant hydrated longer so you don't have to water every single day like the rainforest, or multiple times a week. hope this clarifies 😊

All my full size anthurium are in ambient conditions, 40 - 50% humidity. They're thriving. I've been so lucky with them! 😅
No luck, just good plant care on your end😉
Vibes.
I want all of them ❤❤❤
Our collections are never complete 🤓
Mine antheriums are getting normal air. Have no money nor room for a cabinet. Btw, where do you get those vessels from? I need something big like that .
I get them at Jamali in the flower district of Manhattan 😊
how are the anthuriums doing now in low humidity? do you think they can tolerate low light as well??
Most do just fine in my ambient humidity. 35-60% throughout the year. And they are great low light plants, growing big leaves in 100-300 foot candles
What’s the last anthurium? I rewound it several times, but I couldn’t catch the name of it. The huge one you showed last?? Thank youu !!
I totally forgot it! Cupulispathum😅
Maaaan. Now I gotta get an Anthurium.
Do it!😃
