Anthurium Dorayaki – Ø 6cm

Care/Details

This plant thrives in warm and humid environments. It prefers bright, indirect light, but it can tolerate lower light conditions. Direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf burn. Anthurium Dorayaki appreciates consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. It is important to water it when the top inch of soil feels slightly dry.

• Environment – Ideally placed in a light environment, however, not in direct sun during months with strong sunshine. Temperatures between 18 to 30 degrees Celsius are recommended.

• Watering – Water once a week and make sure not to overwater, let the plant absorb all water within a few hours. If any water is left, you should pour the rest out. Try with 100-200 ml for midsize pots (10-12 ø cm pots) and 50 ml for mini plants (6cm). After a period of days, the soil will start to dry up, here you can wait a day or two to water. During winter periods with lower growth and less, you can wait approx. 14 days between watering.

• Leaves care – It is common for outer leaves to become yellow at some point, wait for the leaf stem to loosen slightly from the plant before removal, do this with care to avoid harming the plant. If you notice the leaves dripping this is not unusual and it can be caused by overwatering or due to higher temperatures amongst other factors.

• Fertilizer – This can be administered once monthly during spring and summer periods. During winter the plant is not as likely to endure growth, therefore, the plant will not absorb the fertilizer.
