Anthurium Flamingo in Yellow Basil

Your Anthurium Flamingo comes planted in the right soil mix so it starts healthy — with just a few basics right, it will truly thrive.

Where to keep it?
Think bright shade. A spot with indirect light (near a window, behind a curtain, or a few feet away from sunlight) is ideal.
More indirect light usually means better colour and more blooms. Harsh, direct sun for long hours can scorch the leaves.

How much watering?

Overwatering is the #1 reason Anthuriums struggle. They like lightly moist soil but not soggy roots. Yellowing leaves often mean the soil is staying wet too long.

• Touch the soil and gently push your finger 1 inch deep. If it feels slightly moist, don’t water.
• If it feels dry, water thoroughly until water drains from the bottom.
• In summers: usually once a week. In winters: every 10–14 days. (Always follow the finger-test over the calendar.)
  

Other care tips

• If a leaf or flower turns yellow or brown, remove it (cut close to the base).
• Wipe the leaves once in a while so dust doesn’t block light.
• Anthuriums enjoy humidity, so avoid placing them near AC vents or heaters.
