#HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #Anthurium #AnthuriumAssembly The struggle is real….. King Julien is too big for the greenhouse, to big for the last spot (got a lil sun burn on a couple leaf edges) and now too big for the top of the fridge. Duuuuuuuuude I’m just trying to make you happy 😅

#PlantMail today! Got my #1 wishlist plant (for now) - meet my new Anthurium veitchii! These are natural from Colombia's rainforests, used to high humidity. I got a small/medium (more medium-sized, in my opinion) specimen from my usual vendor, so already got leaves about the size of a hand. A mature individual can grow to 2-6 ft. tall, 3-4 ft. wide. And the more incredible: The leaves of an Anthurium veitchii can grow up to four feet long and 40 centimeters wide! Here are some pics for you to see (or meet!) my new friend :) —- #anthurium #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #FreshLeafFriday #FreshFeaturedFriday

Hello! My one leaf died, the corm is still in good condition, not soaky. What’s the best what to encourage a new leaf? I have it in a clear plastic cup with a dom lid for high humidity. Cheers. #Anthurium

I’m so happy!! My #anthurium Stanley is doing so good! We have #babies—two new #pups!—and a an #aerialroot! I was trimming away brown sheathes and I’m so relieved I noticed this one was different! I gently peeled the brown sheath away from it and had no clue what was going on here… so I asked ChatGPT for a more immediate answer 😅 It said this was an aerial root! Then I noticed these two coming out of the ground, and I was so excited for what I thought they could be that I asked ChatGPT again—and it confirmed they were basal offsets aka pups! As a #NewPlantMom I’m so relieved to be doing something right! #newplantgrowth #newgrowth #freshleaffriday

Painter's Palette #Anthurium, mine no longer have the red foliage. It's kept near a window that gets indirect light and I water it when dry. What can be causing this?
