I can’t thank people enough for all their support on my first ever @youtube video featuring my bestie @angelaalba_ (the other half of @furrybotanist) I hope if you did get a chance to watch that it brought a smile to your face 🤗 Speaking of smiles, today’s #plantsincolor is all in honor of the Queen herself, the Anthurium Queen, Anthurium warocqueanum. She is not easy to please and has no qualms letting you know she’s unhappy by shriveling you into the crispiest leaf you’ve ever seen ☠️. I have raised a few back from the sphagnum moss grave and I happy to say we’re stable for now 👍 🙃 #plantsincolor :: :: :: :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #anthuriumwarocqueanum #anthurium #allaboutanthuriums #plantcare #rareplants #plantcollection #dinosaurplant #queenofanthuriums (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B94M_mEgrIV/?igshid=152bqa3kfgpgr

My Anthurium metallicum is a slow grower and by that I mean it hasn’t given me any new leaves ☹️ This is one of the anthuriums I’ve been itching to repot and I’m hoping to find it a better spot for it in the apartment. The leaves on this one are a bit to large to keep in an enclosure for high humidity so I might need to get creative and find a way to get it closer to my humidifiers. It’s hard to balance the prime planty real estate in the apartment with so many needy plants. I also keep telling myself to slow it down with the anthuriums but as you can probably guess that little voice gets ignored pretty often🙈 I just can’t help myself when it comes to those dino looking leaves 😂🦖 #plantsincolor :: :: :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #anthuriummetallicum #allaboutanthuriums #freshleaf #plantcare #plant #plantcollection #indoorplants #apartmentplants #apartmentdecor #apartmentliving #nyc #nycplantparents #plantsarefriends #dino #difficultplants (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8TLt0HgOQK/?igshid=16m1jrkxvqjba

My Anthurium crystallinum has always been doing just ok. The brown hue of the leaf is normal for new emerging anthurium leaves. It eventually fades to green as the leaf hardens. I was thinking about upgrading my anthuriums medium to include orchid bark and charcoal along with the sphagnum moss. A lot about being a plant parent is experimenting with your plants testing what works and what doesn’t work. In the end some risks are worth taking to find the perfect soil or lighting. A good tip if you are trying something new with a plant- take a division or cutting to propagate, just in case things you’re trying out don’t work out! #plantsincolor :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #anthuriumcrystallinum #allaboutanthuriums #freshleaf #plantcare #plant #plantcollection #indoorplants #apartmentplants #apartmentdecor #apartmentliving #nyc #nycplantparents (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B71KqG7gCqP/?igshid=1ue2bhbhhlx0n

Are plant snuggles a thing? I think it’s a thing 🥰 Ok, I’m pretty proud of this one. I was having tons of issues keeping the anthurium waroqueanum in the apartment and finally after months of regrowing in the healing box I’ve successful kept it outside the box and in the apartment for more then two months. It’s currently living inside a clear nursing pot and inside my @wallygro planter and all right by the humidifer. All are in sphagnum moss but I am debating changing the medium come spring time. What do you love using for your anthuriums? :: :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #allaboutanthuriums #anthuriumthursday #anthuriumwarocqueanum #regrow #plantcare #plant #plantcollection #plantlover #plantlove #plantparent #plantparenthood #plantcommunity #iplanteven #urbanjungle #urbanjunglebloggers #peoplewithplants #plantpeople #plantsmakepeoplehappy #houseplantclub #houseplantcommunity #apartmentplants #apartmentliving #nycplants #nycplantpeople (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7GrnJMAfRH/?igshid=5o7ck82bpiue

Just in time for #anthuriumthursday - here is my #anthuriumvillennaorum ! I’ve wanted this plant for a while and fell even more in love with it when I first saw it in person. I currently have it potted in sphagnum moss in a hand made terra-cotta pot that has holes around the sides. It seems to really like it’s little triangle pot and I think it’s the perfect plant & pot pairing🤗 I started collecting anthuriums last summer where I struggled, killing a lot in my learning process. Eventually I did start to understand their personalities more and more (especially thanks to my plant bae @plantsinwonderland ) and starting realizing I needed to adjust the type of plant parent I was so that I could accommodate to the anthuriums. It meant adding more humidity to the space being on top of watering and making sure the sphagnum moss was fertilized and providing nutrition for the plant itself. It’s all been worth it for me so I can keep these anthuriums part of my plant fam🥰 #plantsincolor :: And if you really love anthuriums check out @allaboutanthuriums it’s a page I run along side some other amazing accounts 💚🌿 :: :: :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #allaboutanthuriums #anthurium #plantcare #rareplants #nyc #apartmentplants #apartmentliving #nycplants #plantsarefriends #plantcollection #myplants #livingwithplants #botanicalpickmeup #terracotta #green #inspo #myplantcollection (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2UTsv_gIYE/?igshid=cs27oi8equ

The Sip n’ Swap event yesterday was just more proof that our beautiful plant community is filled with some of the most genuine, thoughtful, kind and beautiful humans. Yesterday’s plant event @greeneryunlimited, hosted alongside myself, @plantkween @botanybox & @ihavethisthingwithurbanjungles was such a magical planet event! I can’t wait for the next one. Anytime I get to see my plant fam in real life makes my heart swell! Thank you to @greeneryunlimited @thebotanistgin & @gothamgreens for being so kind and welcoming to all the plant nerds🤓! Also, a big thanks to everyone who complimented and encouraged me to continue my #plantsincolor series. It’s a labor of love and I’m happy that you guys notice and appreciate it🌈😘 :: Photographed here is the newest leaf on my Anthurium veitchii ‘narrow form’. It’s the first leaf that’s emerged since I got it months ago. The main visual difference between the narrow and wide form are the ripples along the leaf. In the narrow form there is less space in between each crease and the leaf appears more elongated, whereas the wide form has more space in between each crease and has wider leaves. #plantsincolor :: :: :: :: #apartmentbotanist #allaboutanthuriums #anthurium #anthuriums #anthuriumveitchii #ihaveathingforanthuriums #plantcare #rareplants #nyc #plantcollection #nycliving #apartmentplants #apartmentliving #urbanjungle #nycplants #moreplantsplease #apartmenttherapy #green #greenspiration #newyorkcity (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1fgbE5AXaJ/?igshid=1wh7rj2b5wx62
