Anthurium Warocqueanum × Andreanum problems — and how to fix them

Anthurium Warocqueanum × Andreanum (Anthurium warocqueanum × Anthurium andreanum) 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, deformed long leaves

Low humidity is the usual cause for warocqueanum-type leaves. Raise humidity to 70% or more and steady the airflow.

Root rot

From a soggy or compacted mix. Use a chunky aroid blend and let the surface dry between waterings.

Few or no blooms

Often too little light or nutrients. Provide brighter indirect light and a phosphorus-leaning feed to coax flowering.

Spider mites and thrips

Favoured by dry air; inspect leaf undersides regularly and treat early before stippling and scarring spread.
