Parentage

Hybrid cross: Anthurium 'Crystal Hope' ×Anthurium 'Mag Verde'

Care Guide

Anthurium 'Mag Verde' thrives in bright, filtered light and prefers consistently moist but well-draining soil—avoid waterlogging. High humidity (60–80%) and warm temperatures (18–28 °C) support healthy growth; mist regularly or use a pebble tray. Feed monthly during the growing season and repot annually or when roots emerge from drainage holes.

Repotting

Aroid mix: 50% high-quality orchid bark, 30% coco coir, 20% perlite or sand. Anthuriums prefer a chunky, well-draining medium that mimics their natural epiphytic habitat. Repot every 12–18 months in spring when roots circle the pot; use a pot only slightly larger than the root ball.

Feeding

Every 2–4 weeks during growing season (spring–summer)

Common Problems
  • Root rot from overwatering; yellowing leaves from cold drafts or low humidity; spider mites and mealybugs in dry conditions; brown leaf tips from chlorinated water or low humidity.
Notes & Curiosities
  • Anthurium 'Mag Verde' is a modern cultivar bred for its striking dark green foliage and deep burgundy or pink spathes.
  • Anthuriums are epiphytes in nature, growing on tree branches in tropical rainforests, which is why they need excellent drainage and prefer loose, bark-based substrates.
  • The striking 'flower' is actually a modified leaf (spathe) surrounding a protruding spadix—the true flowers are tiny and clustered on the spadix.
Toxicity: toxic to pets, toxic to humans. Leaves and stems contain calcium oxalate crystals; chewing causes oral irritation, swelling, and difficulty swallowing in pets and humans. Sap may irritate skin.
