General Care

Anthuriums

Use a well-draining potting mix that retains some moisture but doesn’t become waterlogged. A mixture of peat moss, perlite and orchid bark works well.

Repot Anthuriums every 1-2 years or when the roots outgrow the pot. Choose a pot that provides enough room for root growth.

Remove dead or yellowing leaves regularly to encourage new growth and maintain the plant’s appearance.

Trime off spent flowers at the base to encourage continuous blooming.

Keep an eye out for pests such as aphids, mealybugs, or spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

Provide good air circulation around the plant to prevent stagnant air which can lead to fungal disease.

Avoid placing Anthuriums in draughty areas or near air vents that produce hot or cold air.

Orchids

Use a well-draining orchid potting mix such as a combination of bark, sphagnum moss and perlite.

Repot orchids every 1-2 years or when the potting medium breaks down and becomes compacted. Repotting is typically done after flowering or during the growing season.

Orchids thrive in environments with good air circulation. Ensure there is adequate airflow around the plant by avoiding overcrowding and placing them in well-ventilated areas.

Remove dead or yellowing leaves and spent flower spikes using sterilized pruning shears to maintain the plant's appearance and promote new growth.

Keep an eye out for signs of pests and diseases such as scale, mealybugs, or root rot. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or appropriate fungicides.

Succulents

Use a well-draining potting mix specifically formulated for succulents and cacti. A mix of perlite, coarse sand, and potting soil or succulent mix works well.

Repot succulents every 1-2 years or when they outgrow their current container. Spring or early summer is the best time for repotting.

Inspect the roots for signs of overcrowding or rot before repotting, and trim away any damaged or unhealthy roots.

Remove dead or damaged leaves and stems using sterilized pruning shears to maintain the plant's appearance and prevent the spread of disease.

Some succulents may produce offsets or "pups" that can be propagated to grow new plants. You can remove these pups once they are large enough and plant them in separate pots.

Keep an eye out for common succulent pests such as mealybugs, scale insects, and spider mites. Treat infestations promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
