How to divide the flamingo flower into pots and plants? Time and method

Time to divide the anthurium

The most suitable time to divide the Anthurium into pots is generally after the flowers have faded, or in April every spring. In this way, the survival rate of the plant after division is relatively high.

The correct way to divide the anthurium

When dividing the plants into pots, first dig out the mother plant from the pot, try not to damage its root system, and then divide the mother plant from the base. Each plant must have more than 3 buds and part of the root system. After division, apply some wood ash on the cut position, and finally plant them in separate pots.

Precautions for transplanting Anthurium

1. Anthurium is a plant with fleshy roots and a relatively shallow root system. Therefore, when choosing the cultivation soil, pay attention to using soil with strong drainage ability. If you are mixing the soil, you can mix peat soil and river sand in a ratio of 3:1. You can also add appropriate amount of wood ash, perlite, etc.

2. After the Anthurium is divided into pots, it will wilt and needs to be placed in a dimly lit place indoors for maintenance. Do not water the potting soil too frequently. Wait until the surface soil is dry before watering it thoroughly. You also need to spray some water mist on the leaves frequently to reduce the evaporation of water on the leaves, so as to reduce the burden on the injured roots.
