Anthurium Clarinervium Care Tips and Propagation - WITH UPDATES!

The Anthurium clarinervium is a rare anthurium in Indonesia, thanks to its slower growth speed and it being more prone to infections and pests. My anthurium actually took 2 years to grow into a decent enough size to propagate (which is very slow compared to its cousin, the Anthurium crystallinum). In this episode I share full care tips (note that I do live in tropical and hot southeast asia climate), and propagate this into many plants, showing you updates till the very end.

I know everyone keeps saying it but I feel it needs to be repeated - the amount of work and time you put into those propagation videos is astounding! I thought of myself as knowledgeable with plant care but I'm learning new things from you every time :) Thank you Sean for your hard work to keep us educated and entertained!

[@onlyplants]

Im still learning as I go too! More to come 😀

OMG, Sean. I wonder how you handle your files. I mean, every propagation video always comes up with updates. And it could be like 4 weeks or 4 months later... That must be another talent you have. Yes, it's easier for us to watch our videos since you compile it together (that's why we love your videos). Thanks for your hard works.

[@onlyplants]

Thank goodness all the files have dates on them lol. This serves as a journal for me too, without having to write on notebooks 😅

[@almondrose03]

I’ve watched a lot of your propagation videos yet I still do this face 😬😬😬 whenever you chop your plants. Super nerve-racking but satisfying!!

[@onlyplants]

Haha you can’t see me on the screen but 😬😬😬 was my face too when I chopped them

[@devenandplants7253]

1. Light: very bright, but avoid prolonged direct noon/afternoon sunlight 2. Water: 30-40% of the soil is dry, dunk them in water for 3 minutes. 3. Soil: Aroid mix, moss is mandatory, coconut coir - perlite - pumice are all recommeded. Moss pole is recommended 4. Fertilize: slow-release or watered-down liquid. 5. Temperature: If you wear 1 layer of thin clothes and feel comfortable, then it's good. Not too hot, not too cold. 6. Humidity: Higher is recommended. But room humidity is fine. 7. Special note: Clarinervium can adapt to your watering habit. For me, I deep water them every weekend. Some people add fertilizer every watering. But I use slow-release because it's less work. They are really bullet-proof.

[@onlyplants]

Niceeee thank you!

[@AB-ps3jc]

I was told to kind of treat my Clarinervium like a Phal Orchid. So when I purchased it, I changed the soil to a mixture of 50% potting soil, 20% perlite, and 30% chunky orchid bark. I have it near a humidifier but it’s still dry in my house as it’s winter here. In the 2 months I’ve had it, it has been doing amazingly well to my surprise. It’s put out a new leaf bigger than the existing ones when I bought the plant.

[@onlyplants]

Ooh yes. You can try to top dress it with sphagnum moss, to seal in humidity in the roots. They actually love that (but dont overwater after you top dress)

[@agataszczepanska-jochemczy6746]

I love that you post the videos already with the update what was the result! Keep up this great work, I can watch it for hours!

[@onlyplants]

[@meerashah8602]

Sean, a.clarinervium is beautiful and babies are stunning. Keep up the superb work with propagation. The joy that comes from propagation is out of this world 💖

[@amysuewest3826]

[@victoriagrapsidou3474]

I agree with you my friend better propagate from stem cuttings than seeds. Clarinerviums are cheap in Europe, and quite common to came by. Nice and complete video as always dear friend!!!

[@thehouseplantjungle5631]

Thanks for these care tips, I'm going to consider getting a similar looking hybrid Anthurium with similar looking leaves.

[@cadavercakes]

I saw one of your Anthurium videos awhile back and you had moss on top of the soil and LET ME TELL YOU!!!! Since I've had this plant I added moss to the soil the moment I saw your video and my plant took off!!!!!!!! I'm getting a new leaf every other month. It was the Crystallinum video and I have that one and its super rewarding. I do agree about the humidity with the Crystallinum I keep mine in my cabinet and and nowhere else .

[@onlyplants]

Haha I know right. This clarinervium in the video actually taught me that. I was looking at how it didn’t respond well to less or more watering… it just look like they wanted ambient humidity around the roots (but not overwatered)

[@epiwhittaker5617]

Love watching the video, thanks Sean...

[@nicorossi4742]

BEAUTIFUL JOB! SUPER INTERESTING

[@onlyplants]

Thank you 😀

Sean, when you discuss the exotic Platycerium plant, of course it is very interesting and many are looking forward to it

[@onlyplants]

I will film it this year I hope 😀

[@notafraidtogarden4806]

Hi Sean. I love this plant although I don’t have it yet. But I am glad to learn how to propagate before I have it. I have lots of patience with plants so I don’t mind waiting for it to grow. They are gorgeous. 😍😍😍 thanks for your knowledge. 👍

[@onlyplants]

[@cherylyeo25]

Really really appreciate this video with such GREAT tips! I DO have issues with this plant ... and yes, in asia or rather SEasia we seems to have more issues (more fussY) with this sp then crystal Tried to cut anthurium Crystal.... Was so scared as their nodes / leaves are sooo close tgt Cutting was water propagated / then moss / potting mix - 5 pots / 3 pots made it! With this video, I will learn and try soon again! More experiences more we learn

[@yukiaditya7352]

Yay thank you for this video of my favorite kind of Anthurium. I have around 20 kinds of clarinervium, including its hybrid…they are beautiful! Especially the Regale x Clarinervium. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️. Actually I found them prefer brighter light, since their petiole tenda to be long if they dont get much light. And with better light condition, the leaves are upsizing really easy. Mine love to be watered almost everyday, and they love rains.

[@onlyplants]

Whoaaaaa 20 🙈🙈

[@LeMAD22]

There's no such thing as a regale x clarinervium though. You can't create an hybrid between a Mexican anthurium and a South American one.

[@yukiaditya7352]

@@LeMAD22 but we have that hybrid. We have lots of hybrid you would never think possible too here…the chamberlainii x clarinervium just got released here.

I am 6 clarinerviums down and theyre the only plant I would continue to keep trying with

[@riezznaid]

I know right?! My clarinervium hasn't size up since 2,5 years ago. So expensive, and slow grower (compare to other velvety anthurium). Mine still looks like a baby. I am from Indonesia too, by the way. Subscribed.

[@onlyplants]

Yeahhh they are so slow growing in Indonesia. I dont think they like the heat and humidity hehe

[@betsymaltby6788]

How timely....I got my first Anthurium (clarinervium) in October, it is doing fine, however the leaves are facing down close to the petiole, in fact making contact. What am I doing wrong?! Your tips in this video may help. I have moved it to another spot in my home (away from direct sunlight to bright/indirect and away from my humidifier) will see if that helps. Also, great tip on the sphagnum moss around the base...will try that too. Thank you for taking the time to put these propagation videos together and sharing all of your knowledge.

[@onlyplants]

Best to send me pics on IG so we can try to troubleshoot 😀

Hi Shaun, I hope I've spelled your name correctly. Thank you so much for always providing great tips and guidance. How possible it is that I buy a few that Antheriums from your side and have them shipped to South Africa? I've been looking for it for almost nine months with no luck. I will cover the cost.

[@onlyplants]

Hello, i toured many nurseries that do export. Feel free to reach out to them 😀

[@SaffronDallimore]

It’s interesting that you struggle with this anthurium. This one is my most easy and robust plant I have!

[@onlyplants]

Its so slowwwww even now

[@onlyplants]

But happy nonetheless

[@SaffronDallimore]

@@onlyplants In summer, it gives me a new leaf and a flower. Last year it gave me two flowers and a leaf! I do live in a humid climate, and have my plant near the window, but it’s a North facing window. In the summer each time without fail it has given me a new leaf and flowered. It’s been the least fussy plant I have ever owned. Haha!

[@mariab.y.n6502]

The moment you said, "yes". 😂 i feel the satisfaction! Ha ha

[@onlyplants]

Hahaha

[@evanehindle426]

Great video! But a little bit nerve recking too (the cutting part)! I have my anthurium clarinervium for a year and I treat it like an orchid.. same mix, same watering, same light and it’s doing quite good, new big leaves quite often but it doing the same thing as said in the comments, the leaves are facing down.. it might be because of a lack of humidity..?

[@onlyplants]

It could be, try to top dress the media with a bit of moss maybe to increase humidity both in the roots and around the leaves

[@ravenwings09]

This makes me want to try anthuriums again, but it's so hot in our area I don't know if I can

[@onlyplants]

I recommend the crystallinum for hotter climates 😀

[@cassiev2176]

I just got one and i love it so much! I was wondering if i can shower it or if that would cause the velvety leafs damage? I have no idea 🙈

[@onlyplants]

You can get the leaves wet if the water is clean and with little minerals, also if the leaves can dry out fast (ie good light, warmth, and most importantly airflow)

[@cassiev2176]

@@onlyplants perfect thanx!

[@muktharpalathingal8740]

can you make a video of Anthurium magnificum, clarinervium and crystallianum... how to id them from one to another..

[@onlyplants]

I have separate videos on each of these actually 😀 its actually quite easy to tell them apart. Magnificums dont stay small for long at all

[@kendravoracek3636]

💚

[@melvinho77]

Kaylee said it’s an easy plant so I got one but I killed it within 1 month. Tried leca but it died a slow and painful death. :)

[@peapod1217]

My clarinervium was rapidly declining until I moved it to semi-hydro leca. Only then, it stopped yellowing and started sprouting new leaves.

[@onlyplants]

Keep trying 😀 figure out what killed it

[@sumantapal5199]

any advice for propagating anthurium clarinervium from seeds ? just got hands on some!!

[@onlyplants]

In moss and in a sealed container. Keep it only lightly damp but not wet as it may rot 😀

[@ruthempinado5802]

I love this plant how can I have this ?

[@grat2010]

Which anthurium do you think is easiest for a someone who is new to anthuriums?

[@onlyplants]

For me its crystallinum but some people do struggle… the andreanum which is grown for its flowers may be a good beginner anthurium

[@gmatt2498]

I have a anthurium plant very nice plant but seems like a hard plant to take care of. I'm always losing leaves and sometimes gets soft.

[@onlyplants]

It could be watering issues, usually overwatering

[@roysumarli3428]

👍😍 💚

[@olgaobserver2125]

🌿🌿🌿

[@skbrar2832]

Should we keep some parts of its roots above the soil as we do with the flower giving anthuriums

[@onlyplants]

Its best to bury them when you can so they can become soil roots. But being hemiepiphytes they will grow upwards and shoot down more aerial roots below 😀

[@skbrar2832]

Thanks a lot

[@sterlgirlceline]

If it were to get pests, is there a way to spray without damaging the leaves?

[@onlyplants]

Pesticides, both natural and chemical, should be safe on the leaves when diluted correctly 😀

[@bpr3017]

I repotted my clarinervium in chunky aroid mix and self watering pot.. it's been happy ever since.. the leaves are almost perfect.. 😍 I'll be putting my other Anthuriums in self watering pots too 😬

[@onlyplants]

Niceee. They have some similarities in the care but some may acclimatize harder than others 😀 good luck!

[@bpr3017]

@@onlyplants thanks! I'll keep that in mind! Maybe I'll try with my Magnificum or silver blush since they have similar care.. I feel like self watering pot is a life hack haha!

[@Mandy4610]

Are these better to plant in terracotta pots instead of plastic?

[@onlyplants]

For me, terracotta because Im a heavy handed waterer
