Troubleshooting
Anthurium Ravenii problems — and how to fix them
Anthurium Ravenii (Anthurium ravenii) 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.
Brown leaf tips
Most often low humidity or tap-water salts and fluoride. Raise humidity above 60%, switch to rain or filtered water and flush the mix periodically.
Root rot
Result of a heavy mix or overwatering. Use a chunky epiphytic blend, allow the surface to dry between waterings and confirm the pot drains freely.
Deformed new leaves
Often inconsistent humidity or low warmth as leaves unfurl. Stabilise humidity and keep temperatures above 18°C so new growth hardens cleanly.
Yellowing leaves
Usually overwatering or, less often, nutrient depletion. Check root health, correct watering, and resume dilute feeding if older foliage pales generally.
