Anthurium Crystallinum 21cm

🌿 Anthurium Crystallinum Care Guide

The Anthurium crystallinum is pure tropical elegance — broad, velvety leaves etched with glowing silver veins that shimmer like crystal in the light. Native to the rainforests of Central and South America, it’s a collector’s favourite that brings a refined, jungle-luxe vibe to your indoor space.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light to keep its velvety texture and vivid veining

• Can tolerate medium light but will grow slower

• Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn its delicate leaves

💧 Water

• Keep soil consistently moist, but never soggy

• Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feel dry

• Loves a chunky, airy aroid mix — bark, moss, and perlite for healthy roots

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (70%+) for that lush, velvety look

• Mist gently or use a humidifier to mimic its rainforest home

• Dry air can lead to brown tips or curled edges

🍽️ Feeding

• Use a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer

• Skip feeding in autumn and winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Rotate regularly for balanced growth

• Wipe leaves gently to maintain their crystal-like sheen

• Not pet-safe — keep out of reach of cats and dogs
