Anthurium Pedatum x Pedatum

Dhs. 205.00


Anthurium pedatum, also known as the "pedate anthurium" or "shark fin anthurium," is a unique and beautiful plant. Here’s how to care for it:

  1. Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch its leaves, while too little light can slow its growth.
  2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. In winter, reduce watering as the plant's growth slows.
  3. Humidity: Thrives in high humidity. Aim for 60-80% humidity, and consider using a humidifier or placing the plant on a humidity tray if needed.
  4. Temperature: Enjoys temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect it from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
  5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A mix designed for orchids or a blend of peat, pine bark, and perlite works well.
  6. Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 6-8 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
  7. Pruning: Remove any dead or damaged leaves to promote healthy growth and maintain the plant's appearance.
  8. Repotting: Repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Spring is the best time for repotting.

By following these care guidelines, you can keep your Anthurium pedatum healthy and thriving
