Anthurium Queen of Hearts Care Guide
Anthurium Queen of Hearts is a charming houseplant with large, velvety green leaves and prominent venation. This regal plant from tropical rainforests brings a luxurious atmosphere to any interior and becomes an unmissable focal point.
Watering
Water only when the top 1/2 of the soil in the pot is dry. Anthurium does not tolerate overwatering, which leads to root rot.
Use room temperature, standing water. Water that is too cold can shock the plant.
Light
It thrives best in bright, indirect light. Direct midday sun can scorch the leaves.
It can tolerate partial shade, but growth will be slower and leaves smaller.
Temperature and Air
Ideal temperature: 18–26 °C. Growth slows if the temperature drops below 15 °C.
Air humidity: Ideally 60–70%. Regularly mist the leaves or place the plant on a tray with moist pebbles.
Tip: Regularly wipe the leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust, allowing the plant to breathe better and perform photosynthesis.
Fertilization
During the growing season (spring–autumn), fertilize once every 14 days with a liquid houseplant fertilizer.
In winter, reduce fertilization to once a month or omit it completely if the plant is not growing.
Substrate
Substrate: Must be very airy and well-draining. An "aroid mix" (a blend of houseplant potting mix, pine bark, perlite, and coco chips) is ideal.
