Anthurium Clarinervium
About:
Anthurium clarinervium is one of the Instagram must-have houseplants right now, so count yourself lucky if you are able to find one available to buy at a reasonable price.
Also known as velvet cardboard anthurium or white-veined anthurium, its brilliantly patterned lush leaves will enhance the contemporary or traditional decor.
There are many types of anthurium that can grow very large indoors. Clarinervium is a small breed that is perfect for growing indoors. indoors, clarinervium can only grow 6'' and can be a bit bigger
Lighting
Clarinervium loves bright light but not direct exposure. maybe you should keep it out of direct light, a little bit is ok.
but unless you live in an area where the days are shorter and cloudy, the sun's rays are very beneficial.
I put my plants in the window that gets the morning sun, but in summer, I place them outside in the shade under a big tree.
TEMPERATURE
Anthurium will thrive in warm temperatures. provide him with around 70-90F (21-32C) if you can. I keep mine in my sunroom and it goes into the 60s (F) in winter, sometimes lower
HUMIDITY
Anthurium really likes humidity so it is suitable for planting in a greenhouse, but it can also be planted indoors but you have to be a little extra careful
If your room is dry due to winter, I recommend having a humidifier in your home.
I run it from around October or when winter comes, until April or May.
feed them with humidity around 40% or can be more at least 50%-60%
I used to use a humidifier in winter without stopping
IRRIGATION
this plant is like an orchid, it sticks to the tree and it often rains in nature, they are often exposed to rain but dry quickly
This is what you must apply at home.
Don't let this plant stagnate in water, it can kill it. after you water the anthurium, make sure you drain the water perfectly, so that no water gets caught in your plant and makes it dry quickly
do not water too often maybe every 3 days depending on the season.
besides having a good way of watering, you also have to have a good planting medium so that your anthurium thrives
Soil
Since anthuriums are epiphytes, they need well-draining soil. I used to add orchid skin, this is the secret of growing anthurium
you can start with 1 to 2-3 potting soil. this will provide high drainage for them to thrive
you can also mix a handful of pearlite into it.
Equal parts potting mix, perlite and orchid bark make this an excellent medium. This is the mix I'm currently using.
Fertilization
Fertilizer is active in Spring and Summer. The fertilizer I use is Dyna-Gro Grow and bought it in the marketplace. I add 1/4 teaspoon to a gallon of water and put it on a tropical plant. It is a FULL fertilizer and is urea free so it is not able to burn plants. I always use this fertilizer and recommend it to you, because I get very good results
AIR CIRCULATION
Since these are epiphytes, they love air, please consider this. in nature they have good circulation because they grow on the edge of cliffs attached to trees and rocks.
Air circulation is very favored by many plants, especially epiphytes such as Anthurium. I'm not discussing cold wind, surely you will avoid it.
If it's warm outside, open the window so that the air circulates smoothly to your plants. putting it outside in the summer will provide good benefits because it will get rainwater, humidity, and good air circulation
Propagation
Propagation should be done while you are repotting, if your Anthurium has more than one stem. separate each new establishment. make sure there are 1-2 roots in the part you are going to multiply
