How to prune anthurium andraeanum 'black beauty'

Any time as spent flowers and damaged leaves appear. Snip spent spathe stems at their base with clean sterilised scissors. Cut yellowing petioles cleanly at the base, avoiding contact with healthy neighbouring stems.

As needed; typically every few weeks during active growth. Anthurium 'Black Beauty' needs only cosmetic pruning. Remove spent dark spathes once they fade and cut away any yellowing or brown leaves at their petiole base. The deep-coloured foliage on this cultivar is ornamental — never cut into healthy leaves unnecessarily. No structural pruning is needed.
