Anthurium macrolobium

Anthuriums have both a certain elegance and a certain bizarreness about them that is undeniably magnetic. They are primarily well-known for their dramatic foliage, producing numerous, long-lasting leaves per year. 

The hulking leaves and neon flowers of this species certainly have a charm similar to their cousin the philodendron, but there is something entirely wild about them: they scream, “I belong in the jungle.” While Anthurium care is a little different from that of most houseplants, with a few adjustments these plants can happily grow indoors.

Anthurium Macrolobium Plant Care Guide

Light:

Anthurium macrolobium plant enjoys the shade. Long exposure to direct sunlight will burn its flowers and foliage. Hence, give them a good shady area to grow. However, do not deprive them of all light. Ideally, 75-80% shade is best. Extremely low light levels can shut down its flower production. If that happens, move the plant to a brighter location and wait for flowers to appear again.

Soil:

Anthuriums like coarse, well-draining potting. An orchid mix with additional sand and peat moss mixed in makes a good potting mix for anthuriums macrolobium.

Temperature:

 This plant grows best with day temperatures of 25 to 32 °C and night temperatures of 21 to 24 °C. A high temperature will cause drying of the foliage and flowers and finally ends with the fading of the Anthurium macrolobium plant.

Watering:

 Anthurium plant prefers high humidity and moist media. However, overwatering can cause root damage and sudden yellowing of its leaves. While the plants enjoy moisture, they do not like saturated media. Hence, make sure to monitor your watering. Light, regular watering is preferred to heavy soakings. Make sure the soil dries between waterings. If you live in a hot area, water about once every 2 to 3 days; if you live in a rainy area, then water is required. In addition, do not forget a light misting on the leaves to promote the humidity.

Fertilizer:

Most growers use a slow time-release fertilizer monthly for Anthurium plants. These plant roots are very sensitive to uncoated quick-release fertilizers, that can burn their sensitive roots. Moreover, organic powder fertilizers can burn roots as well. Liquid fertilizers can be applied as foliar applications or incorporated at lower concentrations into water.
