Anthurium Mix

What type of soil do Anthuriums like?

Most Anthuriums are epiphytes like orchids, which means they grow on the bark of trees in the tropical rainforests. Yet, some anthurium species, like Anthurium Magnificum, Anthurium Dressleri, Anthurium Besseae and others are rooted to the nutrient-rich forest floor, drawing nourishment from the damp, organic-rich soil.

Why choose our Premium Anthurium potting mix?

Chunky and well-draining: 

Generous amounts of bark creates plenty of air pockets essential for the thick roots of Anthuriums to develop and get necessary support. Enhanced with pumice, lava and activated charcoal, this anthurium soil mix ensures good drainage, striking a balance between moisture retention and aeration.

Caters to Both Epiphytic and Terrestrial Anthuriums:

Our mix contains nutrient -rich worm castings to support the nutritious needs of your anthurium regardless of its natural habitat. A combination of coco coir and worm castings with drainage improving components provides an ideal environment for anthuriums that grow both on lofty tree stems or the grounded forest floor.

Rich Nutrient Source:

By pre-treating coco coir, our base component, we ensure that every nutrient added to the pot is readily available for your plant's absorption. With worm castings rich with beneficial bacteria and fungi, and an added boost of vital soil microorganisms like Bacillus sp., Actinomycetes, Azotobacter and others, your plants gain a strong defense against stress and diseases. We also add Mycorrhizae into the mix – a fungi that creates a symbiotic relationship with your plant's roots, greatly improving water and nutrient uptake. Zeolite's ability to lock in and gradually release nutrients, ensures that your plant has enough nutrients for one month after repotting.
