Anthurium andraeanum 'Orange Hot' problems — and how to fix them

Anthurium andraeanum 'Orange Hot' (Anthurium andraeanum 'Orange Hot') is generally forgiving once you match its basics, but a few issues come up again and again. Here is what each one looks like, why it happens, and the fix.

No flowers

Most often too little light or excess nitrogen. Increase bright indirect light and use a higher-phosphorus feed.

Browning leaf and spathe tips

Low humidity or fertiliser-salt build-up. Raise humidity, use low-mineral water, and flush the pot.

Yellowing leaves

Overwatering and poor drainage. Let the surface dry between waterings and ensure the mix drains freely.

Faded or sunburned spathes

Direct sun bleaches the orange colour and marks leaves. Move to filtered, bright indirect light.
