Farewell to our first Queen Anthurium

Hi #GregGang! Today in #CarolinesWinterGarden , we are saying goodbye to Adeya our very first #QueenAnthurium! Her backstory: I purchased her from someone, not a nursery, and she made me fall in love with all Anthuriums. 😁 In her time with me, she went through moments of beautiful growth and torturous leaf loss, multiple times. I quickly understood that she was sickly. No matter what I tried, she would lose foliage and was unable to hold on to any very long. I’m not sure how old she was but she seemed to be an apartment sized plant (the Esmeralda) and not the larger queen. It didn’t matter. She was still loved and will always be loved for teaching us about Anthurium care. We learned a lot! πŸ˜… Well, she’s been slowly dying back and while I’ve waited for her to decide whether she wants to go or stay, I’ve kept a watchful eye; today, it’s apparent she’s too tired and has decided to go. 😐 We aren’t upset since she’s given us so much knowledge and shared her beauty with many as well as inspired many to consider welcoming Anthurium into their home. We’ve enjoyed her presence and the fuss she brought to our lives. It’s been good and we hope to find another Queen that will sit in her place and live a long life amongst the original Adeya’s mini kingdom. Cheers to Adeya 1, our first queen! πŸ₯‚You will be missed! 🌿

Aww so sad but like you said we're all happy you got to call her yours for however long it was
@MariansOasis @KDkat3 @LuxuryMint @BuoyantSandleek Thank yoh all so much! They are ours for a borrowed amount of time! She started it all in my garden so she opened me up to welcoming more plants and finding joy in them. 😁 I did find a new queen and she’s the larger version. She will be taking Adeya’s seat and crown. Will update once she’s acclimated and ready to debut!
