2 Anthurium Variety Pack

🌿 Botanical Name: Anthurium spp.

🐾 Pet Warning: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. It's best to keep this plant out of reach of pets to avoid any potential health issues.

💧 Care Level: Moderate. Anthuriums require attention to their humidity and watering needs but are otherwise not overly demanding.

📏 Approximate Size: Anthurium plants can grow to be about 1.5 to 2 feet tall (45 to 60 cm) and wide, with heart-shaped, shiny leaves and bright, waxy flowers.

Description: Known for its colorful spathes (often mistaken as flowers) and contrasting spadix, Anthuriums bring a touch of tropical flair to indoor spaces. The "flowers" can be red, pink, orange, white, or green and can last for several weeks.

🌞 Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light levels. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves and blooms.

💧 Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use lukewarm water to avoid shock.

💦 Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Mist the leaves regularly, place a humidifier nearby, or set the plant on a pebble tray with water to maintain high humidity.

🌡️ Temperature: Enjoys warm conditions, ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Protect from cold drafts and keep away from heating vents.

❄️ Hardiness: Not cold hardy. Best kept as an indoor plant except in tropical climates where it can be grown outdoors.

🌱 Fertilizing: Fertilize with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2 months during the growing season. Reduce frequency in fall and winter.

🔄 Re-potting: Repot every 2 to 3 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Use a peat moss-based potting mix for optimal results.

🌱 Propagation: Propagate by division or by taking stem cuttings. Ensure each division has at least one leaf and a portion of the root system when repotting.
