Plant Care
☀️ Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct afternoon sun, especially during Cyprus' hot summer months, as it can damage the leaves and flowers.
💧 Water: Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist but never waterlogged. Always allow excess water to drain freely.
💦 Humidity: Enjoys medium to high humidity. Occasional misting or a humidifier will help maintain healthy foliage and encourage long-lasting blooms.
🌡️ Temperature: Thrives between 18–28°C. Protect from temperatures below 15°C and avoid cold drafts or direct air conditioning.
🌸 Flowering: Produces long-lasting blooms throughout the year under the right conditions, with each flower remaining attractive for several weeks or even months.
🌱 Growth: A compact, slow to moderate-growing plant that retains its elegant appearance year-round.
🐾 Pet Friendly: No. Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. Keep out of reach of pets and young children.

Good to Know
The rich, dark "flower" is actually a spathe (a modified leaf), while the true flowers grow on the central spadix. The colour may appear deep burgundy, chocolate or almost black depending on the variety, lighting and maturity of the bloom.
🇨🇾 Cyprus Tip: Anthuriums grow beautifully indoors in Cyprus when protected from direct summer sunlight. During the hot, dry months, increasing humidity and watering consistently (without overwatering) will help keep the foliage healthy and encourage continuous flowering.
Please note: As each plant is a living product, size, shape, foliage, flower colour and number of blooms may vary slightly from the images shown.

Here are the basics:
- Water regularly. Depending on your plant’s needs, you should water it regularly to keep the soil moist but not soggy.
- Fertilize. Feed your plants with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two to four weeks to provide them with necessary nutrients.
- Prune. Trim and prune the plant as needed to maintain its shape and size.
- Monitor for pests. Check your plants regularly for signs of disease and pests so that you can address any problems early on.
- Repot. Repot your plants every two to three years to ensure they have enough room to grow.
Here are some things to look for to determine if your plant needs attention:
- Wilting or drooping leaves: This could indicate that the plant is not getting enough water or is getting too much water. Make sure to check the soil moisture level and adjust your watering schedule accordingly.
- Yellowing leaves: Yellowing leaves can be a sign of many things, such as nutrient deficiencies or overwatering. Try to identify the cause of the yellowing and address it accordingly.
- Brown or dry leaves: Brown or dry leaves can indicate that the plant is not getting enough water, or it may be getting too much direct sunlight. Move the plant to a shadier spot or adjust your watering schedule if necessary.
- Stunted growth: If your plant is not growing as quickly as it should, it may be a sign of nutrient deficiencies or poor soil quality. Consider fertilizing the plant or repotting it with fresh soil.
Overall, keeping an eye on your plant's appearance and behavior can help you determine if it needs attention or adjustments in its care.
