- Evergreen Beauty: Unlike many flowering plants, the Bird’s Nest Anthurium offers year-round interest with its evergreen foliage, adding consistent beauty and texture to your garden throughout the seasons.
Care Instructions:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight but can tolerate partial shade. It’s ideal for areas that receive filtered sunlight or light shade, as too much direct sun can scorch the leaves. It’s a great choice for shaded garden beds or under the canopy of taller plants or trees.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Make sure the plant is in well-draining soil to avoid root rot, and ensure that water doesn’t accumulate at the base of the plant.
- Soil: Thrives in well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Rich, loamy soil with good organic matter is ideal for promoting healthy root growth and vibrant foliage.
- Humidity: The Anthurium Hookeri loves humidity, making it ideal for tropical or subtropical climates. If you live in a dry climate, consider occasional misting or placing it in a naturally more humid area, such as a garden near a water feature or in a shaded area.
- Temperature: Best suited for warm temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C). It’s sensitive to frost and should be protected from cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
- Pruning: Remove any yellowing or dead leaves as needed to keep the plant tidy. If the plant becomes too large or out of shape, you can also trim the outer leaves to maintain a neat, compact form.
