A little tact is required when watering the flamingo flower, because the attractive plant is quite sensitive to waterlogging, but also to a lack of water. Therefore, make sure that the exotic beauty always has enough liquid available, but at the same time does not have permanently wet feet.
Too much moisture damages the anthurium
That's how it's poured
- Water only when the substrate surface has dried.
- Water only enough to make the soil feel moist.
- Pour away excess water after a few minutes.
Alternatively, you can submerge the plant as needed. Fill a bucket with water and submerge the flowerpot completely for a few minutes until no more air bubbles appear. Drain well to avoid excess liquid that could lead to root rot collecting in the saucer.
tips
Anthuriums do not like lime, so the irrigation water should always be lime-free. Rainwater or filtered tap water is ideal. If this is not available, you can leave the water for a while so that the limescale settles.
