Care Plan for Anthurium luxurians x radicans

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Protect it from harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves. It can adapt to lower light conditions but may grow more slowly.

Temperature: Thrives in warm temperatures between 18–27°C. Avoid temperatures below 15°C and sudden cold drafts.

Humidity: This hybrid loves high humidity (70–90%). Use a humidifier, place it in a terrarium, or keep it in a room with naturally high humidity to maintain its lush appearance.

Watering:

  • Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy. Water thoroughly when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.
  • Use filtered or distilled water to avoid mineral build-up, as the plant may be sensitive to hard water.

Soil: A well-draining and airy potting mix is essential. Combine equal parts of orchid bark, perlite, and aroid mix, with some sphagnum moss to retain moisture without waterlogging.

Fertiliser: Feed with a balanced, diluted liquid fertiliser every 2–4 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding in autumn and winter when growth slows.

Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years during spring or when the plant outgrows its pot. Ensure the new pot has excellent drainage and is only slightly larger than the current one.

Pests and Problems: Regularly inspect for pests such as spider mites, mealybugs, and scale. Keep the leaves clean and provide good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.

Tips for Success:

  • Place the plant in a location with stable humidity and temperature.
  • Use a moss pole or support if needed to display the leaves beautifully.
