Queen Anthurium Warocqueanum Care Guide

[@madeleine_759]

I really appreciate the academic take you have on plants. I love love love botanic history and science (I'm a horticulture major graduating in a few days). Also... 1:10 is so relatable ! You rock the simple makeup, girl! glowin' next to the queen.

[@ashleyartus1193]

Brilliant Brilliant masterclass. You're also naturally funny and witty. It's a gift. Thank you...the queen is my next obsession. X

[@bunnyyy___]

Finally..somebody sharing in detail what works for growing so called “finicky” aroids in their home, so they can actually see and enjoy the plants they’re growing! 😊🙏🏼 I highly suggest people take some advice/tips from her. The proof is in the pudding!

[@hedgewitch59]

That's what I love to hear...full spec info from an experienced grower. I love that you name your plants. I started too but there's too many to remember. 😅 Thank you. 🙏

[@josephrapp]

A remarkably comprehensive tutorial. I just bought my first and now I have enough info to be confident. Thank you!!!

[@danikak3846]

Thank you SO much for this video! I recently got a baby queen and this is by far the best resource I’ve found so far for how to take care of it! I loved how you went through each of the care requirements step by step, and shared your own experiences. I feel so much more confident about how to go about taking care of my own queen now!

[@Oranginanous]

I love how you add so much information in your videos! Your content is so educational 💚

[@ThePlantsMeow]

Thank you! That is super kind of you to say 🥰🙏🏻✨

[@leegiathekkekara9214]

Thankyou dear again with doubts,can I ask?

[@jaredpati936]

I’m at the part of the video where said you hope this video isn’t too long or boring. ITS NOT. Thank you for this video ! So informative! I have a queen coming in the mail in a couple days and I WAS worried until I watched this so thank you !

[@jaycruzjr4822]

Just got my Queen yesterday. She's a narrow dark form. I don't use any soil in my aroid mix at all and all my Philedendrom are thriving. I don't like soil so I'll use a little coco coir instead. I'm gonna try and mimic your mix..I'm so glad I live in Kissimmee Florida where the average humidity monthly is about 75%. My tropical plants including rare ones grow like weeds. My Queen is from North Florida where the humidity is lower so it should enjoy my home more then it's last. Can't wait to get her. Thanks for the video it was perfect. Most informative video on KZbin about Queen Anthurium.

[@karrahcrain6713]

I’m so surprised that you don’t have 100k subscribers. Your videos are so informative and easy to learn from. Two things that are hard to do at the same time!! I’m getting my first waroc Monday and this was extremely helpful in setting me up for success. Thank you!

[@ImStuckInStockton]

Your bits about humidity/air flow outdoors vs. indoors and how plants grow differently in general indoors/outdoors was a huge insight for me. It seems so obvious now. THANK YOU! I was trying to maintain 65% in my fancy plants room but gave up. I think 55% will be perfect. My queen dropped all her leaves but I have one beautiful leaf now. I think I just need to water her more frequently. My spiritus has grown like crazy with the exact same conditions/watering. Amazing video thanks again!!

[@heatherb1443]

I soaked up ALL the knowledged in this video like a sponge!!!! Thank you grande wizard!

[@lillymemes4545]

YO I just splurged on my first anthurium (of course it was a queen) and as I'm looking through care videos I remember thinking the QUEEN of Anthuriums needs to drop a queen care video!!! My prayers have been answered 🥺

Wow just in time! I’m so happy to hear that! The timing! 😱🙏🏻✨✨✨

[@rmarvel169]

I think the Queen Anthurium is just gorgeous but I'm new to them all but decided to take the plunge with a baby and although it's only been 3 months, she's grown 4 new leaves and is doing great so far! Fingers are crossed..... I am in Florida so maybe that's why she's not died yet 🤔 anyway she is a beauty and I love her

I just got received my first queen today, this video was PERFECTLY timed lol. Thanks for touching on humidity! I’ve been learning a lot about humidity with my calatheas. Great tips

I'm here because my queen's leaves went limp like 2 days after I brought her home (Florida). My plant was in like 80% soil, so helpful the repotting I just did helped! Thank you for showing us the mix💕 It may also save my anthurium oxycarpum!

[@jacielopez2280]

I bought a queen seedling from NSE tropicals in october (I live in SE Louisiana). She was doing AMAZING, not a single sign of acclimation damage UNTIL a huge ice storm hit us mid February. The super low temps were too much for me to protect her and on top of that she dried out a few times without me noticing😖. I just moved her to a slightly more shady spot (spring is really starting to heat up here) and increased her watering. So far her roots are fine; I noticed a bit of drying from those few missed waterings, but from now on I’m doing my best to keep her consistently moist. Her newest leaf is still holding on strong but the smaller immature leaves are yellowed. I’m just hoping she’ll put out a new one soon and forgive me for my sins. Your videos are incredible, I come back to them at least a few times every month. I love your philosophy of compromise with your plants! I have noticed an incredible difference in quality from her to my other anthuriums, it’s almost like Enid is known as the queen of anthuriums for a reason😉

[@meganguan325]

This blows my mind... Success in moderate humidity?! This gives me hope that I can do this with my new baby queen

[@pandorar1388]

Honestly, you give the absolute best in-depth info. about plants.....I was on a website about to purchase my first queen, and I watched this vid. You probably saved me some cash because it is winter now, and I'm going to wait for at least late spring to import the queen. When I do get her, I will re-watch this vid. Thank You for the great info!

You don’t need a fan if you don’t keep them in a case right? I am so glad to have found this video! I just got one and her leaf was broken off in shipping it crushed me, but I have one leaf left at least.

[@PlantJunkyCREATIONS]

I just took a puff of MJ and decided to pop onto the couch, learn me :) a lil' bit about this plant! I just started the video and I already adore her! I laughed as she bumped into the Queen while talking.. continues to talk, trying to stick to her point.. then apologizing to the plant. Totally on a different level. Haha! I feel it!

Hi Ela! I love ALL of your videos! And watch them all the time 😊 I’m repeating this one with the Queens and I noticed the difference in your moss poles. You mentioned the product in the video but I didn’t catch it and it’s not linked. Would you be able to tell me what it is please!? So glad your back and your plant room Reno’s are awesome! ❤️❤️

[@rayraywhat]

THANK YOU 🙏 YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!! I recently got a VERY small one and it’s been trying to push out new leaves but they have been dying off before they can grow. I’m going to try your soil mix, light recommendations, and give her a Lil more TLC. ❤️❤️❤️

[@rmarvel169]

@rayraywhat hi! Have you tried putting her in moss and into a prop box (Sterlite plastic box) keeping the moss damp, until she's got a few more leaves & a stronger root system? It really has made a huge difference in mine but I'm no expert, just sharing ideas 😁 wishing you the best !

[@rmarvel169]

Oh but do be sure to make some holes in it and open the lid each day for at least 30 minutes. Hope it's doing great now!

[@wirunpubpanon2446]

Wow, this is very fun to watch but also super informative, thank you so much! I’ve been getting so much warning about the queen and you truly give me hope!

[@alpina4115]

The point about the roots growing out of the net pot is sooo true, on my Queen the roots are even beginning to come out on the top again lol! But i don't want to repot her since i know what a setback it is for them

[@orangemoonglows2692]

i'm pretty sure the people who lived in that area knew about the plant. the german guy didn't discover anything. he took it from its native habitat and brought it back to europe is more accurate.

[@ThePlantsMeow]

As all botanists do unfortunately. He genuinely loved the plants though. He died a few years later exploring plants on his last dime. He decided living among them was where he was happiest. I mention him because he is often overlooked in science and he deserved more.

[@meganspence6270]

@@ThePlantsMeow instead of saying 'discovered' - i have heard other people mention when a plant was first 'described' by a botanist. I feel like thats a nice way to give the botanist credit for their work without the colonial implications of 'discovery'

Megan Spence I agree 100%! The only issue is that he wasn’t the one to describe the plant. He did the exploring and brought back plants for botanists to describe.

She's root bound so need to pit her up and get her out if the pumice we bought her originally in. She's used to being bottom watered, how would you recommend we go about this.
