Light Requirement - natural indirect/artificial bright light, do not expose the plant to direct sunlight.
Soil- The soil should be well drained, porous, rich in organic content.
Watering- Poke your finger/plain small stick into the soil to check the moisture.
Apply 3 cup (Approx. 150 ml) water when the top soil (3-4 inch) in pot feels dry to touch. Apply water preferably in morning or evening. Do not overwater the plant.
As a rule of thumb, water the plant thoroughly in the summer and reduce watering in winter and rainy season.
Fertilizer- Organic fertilizer once a month in growing season (February to September)
Application of Fertilizer-
-
Before the application of fertilizer loosen the topsoil without disturbing the roots of the plant so it can uptake the nutrients and moisture.
-
During the main growing season (February to September) feed the plant with organic fertilizer once a month.
-
Apply water immediately after application of fertilizer.
Temperature & Humidity -18 to 30 degree Celsius. Many anthuriums are climbers, and all need high humidity and warmth to thrive.
