Growing Anthuriums
Anthuriums can be grown by 4 methods. They are by Vegetative reproducation, Seeds, Tissue culture, and Fertilization. * Anthuriums grow on a wide range of soil types ranging from sandy loams to heavy clays. * Anthuriums need a highly organic soil with good water retention capability and good drainage. * A well-drained soil is important to prevent rotting of stems and roots. * Anthuriums should be planted in raised beds of 1.3 to 2 metres wide and 20 cm deep. * Anthuriums should not be planted more than 5 cm deep, as deep planting results in rotting of stems and roots. * Stake the anthurium after planting for support. * Water the anthuriums immediately after planting. * A layer of coconut husks, semi-rotted wood, or sugar cane baggasse may be used. * Mulching is needed for the anthuriums plants. * Anthurium plant roots grow into the mulch and spread.
Anthuriums plant care
* Remove dead & unsightly foliage and faded or brown flowers. * Use a peat moss base. * Anthuriums need a high light, but not direct sunlight. * Water your anthurium thoroughly, but allow it to dry slightly between waterings. * Do not over-water the anthuriums as it may cause root damage and yellowing of the leaves. * Fertilize anthurium plant about every other month. * Avoid draughts, and strong temperature fluctuations. * In winter anthurium plants need a 6 weeks of rest period at a 15°C with little water. This allows the plant to flower profusely again in the following season.
