Anthurium Magnificum × Crystallinum problems — and how to fix them
Anthurium Magnificum × Crystallinum (Anthurium magnificum × Anthurium crystallinum) 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.
Crispy leaf edges
Low humidity or hard-water minerals. Raise humidity above 60% and use rain or filtered water, flushing the mix.
Root rot and yellowing
From a waterlogged mix. Switch to a chunky aroid blend and let the surface dry between waterings.
Dull veining and small leaves
Usually too little light. Provide brighter indirect light to restore leaf size and silver contrast.
Spider mites
Dry air invites them onto the large velvet leaves; check undersides and treat promptly before damage spreads.
