When to prune anthurium

Anthurium pruning needs to be done in clear weather, mainly to prune rotten, yellowed, and diseased branches and leaves.

When pruning branches, you need to leave 1-2 stem nodes, apply rooting powder on the wound, and then insert the branches or full leaves into the planting soil. A small amount of water will be needed afterwards. The maintenance environment temperature should be between 25 and 35 degrees.

How to prune Anthurium

We must cut off the yellow leaves in time, because as long as they are not completely dry, they will consume nutrients and must be pruned in time.

In order to make the anthurium plant healthier and more beautiful, the withered flowers should be cut off in time after the flowering period. You can trim them 4-5 cm from the flower stem to avoid nutrient loss.

As the anthurium grows, fresh green leaves continue to grow, and there will be a large number of yellow leaves at the bottom, which also consumes a lot of nutrients, so they all need to be trimmed clean.

Anthurium pruning tips

In order to make the entire shape of the anthurium neat and tidy, you can trim off the overgrown, curved and creeping branches.

If you want Anthurium to grow quickly, you need to prune off the sick, weak and old branches when the petioles at the base degenerate, so as to promote the growth of new branches.

Anthurium pruning and flowering

If you want the anthurium to bloom more and larger flowers, it is recommended to cut off the yellowing leaves and the old leaves at the bottom. If the plant is too dense, you can cut off the tilted old leaves and keep the upright ones, because these old leaves will block other leaves, hindering its photosynthesis, affecting its growth, and consuming nutrients.

Tips for pruning Anthurium

Anthurium is slightly poisonous, so you need to wear gloves every time you prune it. And after pruning, you need to wash your hands in time to avoid dangerous situations.
