Anthurium clarinervium hybrid

Anthurium clarinervium hybrids are prized for their thick, velvety leaves and prominent white veining. Most hybrids have care requirements very similar to pure Anthurium clarinervium.

☀️ Light

• Bright, indirect light is best.

• Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch leaves.

• An east-facing window or several feet back from a south/west window works well.

💧 Water

• Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry.

• Keep the soil slightly moist but never soggy.

• Reduce watering in cooler months.

• Yellow leaves often indicate overwatering; crispy brown edges can indicate underwatering or low humidity.

🌱 Soil

Use a chunky, airy aroid mix:

• 40% orchid bark

• 30% high-quality potting mix

• 20% perlite or pumice

• 10% charcoal or coco chips

Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

💨 Humidity

• Prefers 60-80% humidity.

• Can tolerate typical indoor humidity but grows best with added moisture.

• A humidifier is ideal, especially during Florida air-conditioning season.

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal: 65-85°F (18-29°C).

• Avoid temperatures below 55°F.

• Protect from drafts and air vents.

🌿 Fertilizer

• Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength.

• Reduce or stop feeding during winter.

🪴 Repotting

• Repot every 1-2 years when roots fill the pot.

• Only move up one pot size at a time.

• Clear pots can help monitor root health.
