Why is Anthurium not red? why is Anthurium not tall / need to understand four points

The main reason why many people like Anthurium andraeanum is that it has very bright red flowers, but some people find that their Anthurium andraeanum is not red, even some green, so it doesn't look particularly beautiful, so how is it that Anthurium andraeanum is not red? The editor is here to answer for you.

Why is the palm of Anthurium not red?

People often say that things happen for a reason, and there are corresponding reasons why Anthurium andraeanum is not red. How is Anthurium anthurium not red? There are four main reasons, which are: incorrect varieties, lack of light, improper fertilization, before flowering, we can take corresponding measures respectively.

I. Variety problem

Most people because all Anthurium andraeanum should be red, but in fact there are many varieties of Anthurium andraeanum, such as white palm, yellow palm and so on. Even if these varieties bloom, their design and color will generally not be red. If you do not raise Anthurium andraeanum, naturally you will encounter the situation that it is not red.

Solution: each variety of Anthurium andraeanum has its own characteristics. If you like red flowers, you must know clearly in advance when buying and avoid buying other varieties.

Second, lack of light

Through the cultivation methods and precautions of Anthurium andraeanum, we know that Anthurium andraeanum should be preserved in a semi-shady place, but semi-shade does not mean that it does not need light. If it is in a dark environment for a long time, the bud of Anthurium andraeanum will turn green and the color will not be very red.

Solution: let Anthurium andraeanum receive scattered light every day for 4-6 hours. Generally, Anthurium will return to normal after 30 days. Don't let Anthurium be exposed to sunlight in this process, and don't let the light be too strong.

III. Improper fertilization

When applying fertilizer, the choice of fertilizer is very critical. If there is too much nitrogen fertilizer and not enough phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, the result will be that the color of Anthurium andraeanum is green rather than red.

Solution: during the growing period, liquid fertilizer is applied every 15 days. Before flowering, the fertilizer is mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which can promote the differentiation of flower buds and make the flowers more bright red.

IV. Not yet in bloom

The red color of Anthurium andraeanum comes from its flowers, and its branches and leaves are actually green, while the Anthurium andraeanum we have just bought is usually still in the growing period and is far from flowering, so it is naturally not red at this time.

Solution: patient maintenance, to create the most favorable environment for its growth, can promote its growth, when the flowering time comes, it will naturally bloom red flowers.

Why the Anthurium andraeanum is not tall

There are many reasons why Anthurium andraeanum is not tall. In addition to improper maintenance, it has a lot to do with varieties and the environment. If you encounter the situation of growing not tall, you should analyze the specific reasons before you can really solve the problem.

1. Improper maintenance

The maintenance of Anthurium andraeanum involves light, temperature, humidity, fertilizer, moisture, soil and so on. Although many factors seem to be complicated, it is not difficult to develop good maintenance habits. As long as we know clearly, we can avoid improper maintenance and lead to Anthurium andraeanum not growing high.

2. Variety problem

There are some Anthurium andraeanum on the market, which are used for potted plants. If they grow too high, they will affect their appearance, so these varieties themselves will not grow too tall.

3. Environmental factors

Environment is one of the main reasons for the low growth of Anthurium andraeanum, which involves ventilation, humidity, temperature and so on. Only when the ventilation is good, the humidity is high and the temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees, Anthurium andraeanum can grow smoothly, otherwise it may not grow tall.

Why Anthurium is not red? some flower friends do not understand why Anthurium is not red. In fact, this situation is normal and natural in most cases, but there are also special cases of Anthurium andraeanum of individual flower friends. The following is a summary of the reasons why Anthurium andraeanum is not red, for flower friends' reference. 1. The variety is wrong. The "Anthurium andraeanum" sold in the market now also contains a kind of pink "anthurium" called Dream, and its own color is light pink. So it will never be red, ! 2, natural phenomenon, flowers always fall, Anthurium andraeanum bloom for a long time, but not at the same time as leaves (some flower friends argue that red palm flowers should have the same life span as leaves, but I have never seen an example). Red palms bought by flower friends, bright red colors, may have been in bloom for some time, so they will be full of colors and turn green until the end of the flowering period. 3, the problem of light, Anthurium andraeanum is too dark, it may aggravate the color change of Anthurium andraeanum, such as green, red is not so bright red, but if the light is too strong, the leaves will be sunburned and the flowers will become bleak, so astigmatism is the best. 4. due to the problem of fertilizer (unverified), reasonable fertilization will improve flower color, and the demand for "magnesium fertilizer" of Anthurium andraeanum is usually higher than that of other foliage plants. How is the palm not red to return a responsibility?

In family gardening, some flower friends do not understand why the palm is not red. In fact, this situation is normal in most cases and is the law of nature, but there are also individual flower friends whose palm situation is special. the following is the editor's experience to talk about the reasons why the palm is not red, for flower friends' reference.

1. The variety is wrong. The "Anthurium andraeanum" sold in the market now also contains a kind of pink "anthurium" called Dream, and its own color is light pink. So it will never be popular again.

2. Natural phenomenon: flowers always fall, Anthurium andraeanum bloom for a long time, but not at the same time as leaves (some flower friends argue that red palm flowers should have the same lifespan as leaves, but I have never seen an example). Red palms bought by flower friends, bright red colors, may have been in bloom for some time, so they will be full of colors and turn green until the end of the flowering period.

3, the problem of light, Anthurium andraeanum is too dark, lack of light, sometimes cause some flowers of Anthurium andraeanum to turn green. The red one is not so bright red, but if the light is too strong, the leaves will be sunburned and the flowers will become bleak, so astigmatism is best.

4. Lack of nutrition, lack of fertilizer, reasonable fertilization will improve flower color. Anthurium andraeanum plants usually have higher demand for "magnesium fertilizer" than other foliage plants. In addition, you can increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate is often used to spray leaves and roots with water at the ratio of 1: 800 to 1: 1000.

In addition, some flower friends have encountered the problem that Anthurium andraeanum does not blossom, and the temperature requirement of Anthurium andraeanum flowering is relatively strict. The temperature can not be too high, more than 30 degrees is not appropriate, there should be a certain temperature difference between day and night, and it is appropriate to have a temperature difference of three to six degrees. The most suitable temperature is 25 degrees during the day and 19 degrees at night. In addition, it is right to water the basin soil until it is dry, but when the environment is dry, spray water on and around the leaves to increase environmental humidity, especially when heating is turned on at home in winter.

Conclusion: the above is the reason why Anthurium andraeanum is not red. I hope it will be helpful to you.
