Troubleshooting
Anthurium eminens problems — and how to fix them
Anthurium eminens (Anthurium eminens) 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.
Leaf-tip browning
Usually low humidity or hard-water salts. Raise ambient humidity and water with rain or filtered water.
Yellowing lower leaves
Most often overwatering or stagnant mix. Check that the substrate is airy and let the top layer dry before rewatering.
Leaves stay simple, not divided
Immaturity plus insufficient light. Give brighter indirect light and a moss pole; mature leaflet division develops with age and good conditions.
Root rot
Caused by dense, waterlogged soil. Repot into a chunky epiphyte mix and trim any soft, brown roots.
