The height of an adult Anthurium Clarinervium is 2.5-4.5 feet (0.8-1.4 m). When flowering, it develops a pale, long flower (1-2 inches) with a single broad petal.

How to Care for the Plant

Water
This plant is native to tropical forests, so it needs high humidity. You can even place the plant in the bathroom (if the lighting conditions allow it). You should also spray your green friend regularly. Anthurium Clarinervium needs irrigation in small portions. Water it as soon as the top layer of the soil dries up. Typically, giving your Clarivervium a sip about 2 times a week would be best. However, in colder months, the soil will retain moisture better, so you can reduce the frequency of watering in winter and autumn.
Pruning
Anthurium Clarinervium needs some pruning, especially when transplanting. You should remove all the dead leaves and diseased parts.
Fertilizer
This plant does not need any special fertilizer, especially in winter and autumn. In the spring, liquid, complex fertilizers can be used. Don't feed your Anthurium more than once every 1.5 months.
