Anthurium warocqueanum / Anthurium Queen

Anthurium warocqueanum, commonly known as the "Queen Anthurium," is a stunning tropical plant prized for its long, velvety, dark green leaves adorned with prominent white veining. Native to the rainforests of Colombia, it thrives in warm, humid environments. For optimal care, provide bright, indirect light; direct sunlight can scorch its delicate leaves, while low light hampers growth. Maintain temperatures between 65--80°F (18--27°C) and high humidity levels of 70--80%. Use a well-draining, chunky potting mix containing orchid bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss to mimic its natural epiphytic habitat. Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry, ensuring not to overwater, as it is prone to root rot. Mist occasionally or use a humidifier to meet its humidity needs. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. With proper care, this anthurium will showcase its regal foliage year-round.
