🌿 Anthurium ‘Doc Block Michelle’ Care Guide

The Anthurium ‘Doc Block Michelle’ is a stunning hybrid known for its velvety, heart-shaped leaves and strong, silver veining. A blend of sophistication and power, this beauty combines the best traits of its parents — dramatic texture, deep colour, and that irresistible velvety glow.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light for rich colour and strong growth

• Can tolerate medium light, though growth may slow

• Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can burn the delicate leaf surface

💧 Water

• Keep soil evenly moist, allowing the top 2–3 cm to dry between waterings

• Loves a chunky, well-draining mix (bark, perlite, sphagnum moss)

• Avoid soggy soil — steady moisture is key for happy roots

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (70%+) to maintain that lush, velvety texture

• Mist lightly or use a humidifier to recreate tropical air

• Dry air can lead to brown edges or dull leaves

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced, gentle fertilizer

• Pause feeding in autumn and winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Wipe leaves gently to maintain their velvety glow

• Rotate occasionally for even growth and symmetry

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