Anthurium Hookeri NOID

The Anthurium Hookeri is a striking tropical plant known for its rosette-like formation of large, leathery, glossy green leaves that fan out in a bird’s nest shape. The leaves grow upwards and then arch outwards, creating a full, lush appearance. While this particular variety is classified as "NOID" (No ID, meaning its exact species or hybrid is not identified), it shares the general characteristics of bird’s nest Anthuriums: robust, easy to grow, and visually appealing. Native to tropical rainforests, these plants are often grown as ornamental houseplants or in tropical gardens where they provide a bold and architectural presence.

Care Plan for Anthurium Hookeri  (NOID)

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate medium to lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause leaf burn.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Water less in winter when growth slows down.

Humidity: Anthuriums thrive in high humidity (60% or higher). Regular misting or placing the plant near a humidifier will help maintain moisture levels.

Temperature: Ideal temperatures range from 18°C to 26°C. Avoid exposing the plant to temperatures below 15°C and protect it from cold drafts.

Soil: Use a well-draining, loose potting mix that retains some moisture. A mix of peat, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal.

Fertiliser: Feed every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Reduce feeding during autumn and winter.

Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a slightly larger pot and refresh the potting mix to promote growth.
