Hope you found this helpful! Do you grow anthuriums? What are some of your biggest challenges?

Had the chrystallinum on the top.of my wishlist for about 6 years now and made a very loud, very embarrassing and very, very happy noise in a big box store today, when i saw one single chrystallinum amongst some spathiphyllums. Also found a random baby silver blush between a ton of begonias. My buddy was so confused and amused by my joy, he decided to gift them to me, which makes them even more special. It's save to say i had the best day ever. So grateful you are sharing your experience i caring for them ❤️

[@aub_k2819]

Definitely interested in an anthurium update and propagation video! Love this one too!

[@TheNetsrac]

Good tips and advice, thank you

[@MyFellowFoliage]

As always, thanks for watching 😊🙏🏻

[@marsf4883]

Thanks for the tips! Your anthuriums looks really good. I only have one, but seems to be doing okay in soil and not too much sun. :P

[@MyFellowFoliage]

That's great to hear! Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@angelicadominguez7608]

I’ve been REALLY nervous about purchasing one since I keep hearing they can be finicky, but you gave me courage. 😊 Thank you for sharing your info! 💖🪴💚

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Hi Ang, definitely give it a go! It might be challenging at the beginning but once they acclimatize, it'll be much better. I haven't yet lost an anthurium plant (except one baby seedling) - even though 2 had suffered root rot and one came infested with pests. They're actually quite hardy!

[@breakingburque2200]

I don’t have any anthuriums. Maybe one day but honestly in no rush.

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Absolutely - take your time ! There is no rush at all 😊

[@annafink2245]

Getting the light right with certain anthuriums, like the stubby jewel ones, has been a journey. They just don't like too much light.

[@mruduladesai1480]

Hi, great video! I have a quick question for you, could you please tell me why the leaves of my anthurium forgetii X crystallinum turning yellow. It's in leca and sits near the window. Checked roots yesterday as I thought the yellow leaves are sign of too much water/root rot but those roots look very healthy. I'm bit confused 😥

[@jungleflowerscanada5384]

Anthuriums are a struggle for me, I have tried soil and pon but they still get dry tips now and then. Yours are beautiful 💚

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Thanks for your lovely comment! Oh, I wonder if it's perhaps also the humidity?

[@jungleflowerscanada5384]

@@MyFellowFoliage I think so

[@nailbeauty.byjess]

Besides plants, I collect nail polish as well. I’m curious what polish you are wearing?

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Hi Jess! You and I are similar in that regard 😆 it's from a brand called Wildflower and the colour is 'Bloom from within'. It's my favourite colour atm but sadly I think it's no longer in production. I can't seem to find it anywhere 😕

[@nailbeauty.byjess]

@@MyFellowFoliage such a stunning polish ❤️ it reminds me of a polish I use! From Holotaco 😍

[@AlongfortheThrill]

I personally think the coloration will be due to the genetics and form of the Anthirum. Adaptations take generations to form. Brown tips can also be from fungal infections, such as with calathea and begonias. I've noticed personally that heart shaped leaves seem to be very sensitive to fury burn, is it just me?

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I only have heart shaped leaves and quite a number of them are sensitive to fert burn so it's probably not just you!

[@AlongfortheThrill]

@@MyFellowFoliage glad it's not just me!! You would have more experience then me though, I've only had p. pastazanum, a. clarinervium, and p. Gloriousim because now I'm scared lolol

[@iamcaprib]

hi what is the small heart shape anthurium towards the end that you show before the silver ?

[@iamcaprib]

is that the same papilliamnum

[@susaneastman4867]

I have a antherium "fingers", it gets medium light, and average 55 to 60 humidity. The tips brown although the substrate is lightly moist. Any tips?

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Do you use fertiliser with it? 😊

[@susaneastman4867]

@@MyFellowFoliage I have only had it 2 months, so far nothing but worm compost.

[@MyFellowFoliage]

In that case it might just be acclimatising to your space :) it does this often when there is a change in humidity levels

[@lewisharvey8300]

Hey just wondering if you have any tips for growing in MAB?

[@MyFellowFoliage]

Hey there yes I do actually since I've converted some of my plants to MAB and they've really thrived in my environment. I could make a video about that if you like!

[@lewisharvey8300]

@@MyFellowFoliage a video would be greatly appreciated! I feel there's a lack of info on growing in MAB. I'm currently using an indoor greenhouse with 12 hours of full spec light, 2 fans, 80% humidity, and temps of 18 - 23C. I treat the MAB like I would soil, using a watering can to water when it dries out. Which at this point would be weekly. But recently I've had multiple different anthuriums get yellow spots on the leaves, leading to entire leaves yellowing off. Am I simply over watering or could my humidity be too high for these colder months?

Why is there a Hoya planted in with you Anthurium?
