Anthurium Snowy care

Anthurium Snowy inflorescence consists of a very light orange-colored, 3 to 7 cm long spadix and 7 to 10 cm long, petal-like, white-colored spathe...

 Anthurium Snowy, also called as Anthurium andreanum 'Snowy', is a cultivars in the genus Anthurium. This cultivars was created by Leonardus W. B. M. van Rijn in 1997.

DESCRIPTION OF ANTHURIUM SNOWY

 Anthurium Snowy is a cross of Anthurium andreanum selection code number 97-002 as the female, or seed, parent with Anthurium andreanum selection code number 97-013 as the male, or pollen, parent. The plant was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a plant within the progeny of the stated cross in a controlled environment in Schipluiden, The Netherlands in 2000.

Anthurium Snowy care

 It is an evergreen perennial which reaching 85 to 100 cm in height with upright, somewhat outwardly spreading, freely clumping growth habit. The leaves are 15 to 35 cm long by 12 to 19 cm wide, durable, dark green.

 The plant blooms freely and continuous year-round; typically more than 20 inflorescences per plant at one time. The inflorescence last about six weeks under winter conditions and about three months under summer conditions and consists of a very light orange-colored, 3 to 7 cm long spadix and 7 to 10 cm long, petal-like, white-colored spathe that surrounds the spadix on a 35 to 60 cm long, strong and erect peduncle. The fruits develop from the flowers on the spadix.

ANTHURIUM SNOWY CARE AND CULTURE

 Cultural information should only be used as a guide, and should be to be adapted to suit you. Your physical location; where you grow your plants, how much time you have to devote to their care, and many other factors, will need to be taken into account. Only then can you decide on the cultural methods that best suit you and your plants.

Light:

 Anthurium Snowy love shade. Long exposure to direct sunlight will typically burn flowers and foliage. Give them a good shady area to grow. However, do not deprive them of all sunlight. Ideally 75-80% shade is best. Extremely low light levels can shut down flower production. If that happens, move your anthuriums to an area that receives more light and wait for flower production to resume.

 When grown indoors the plant will take about as much light as you can provide them with - but not direct sunlight. Place plant in an area with good, bright, diffused light. Try to place the plant between 5 and 8 feet from a window.

Temperature:

 The plant grow best with day temperatures of 25 to 32 °C and night temperatures of 21 to 24 °C. A high temperature will results in drying of the foliage and flowers and finally ends with the fading of the plant. Night temperatures of between 4 to 10 °C can result in slow growth and yellowing of lower leaves. A temperature below 16 °C will kill the plant. It is also be affected by temperature above 32 °C. Keep your plant away from heat ducts, ventilator grills and drafts.

Substrate and growing media:

 Anthurium Snowy grow best in a well-aerated medium with good water retention capability and with good drainage. A good medium needs to be able to anchor the roots and stem so that the plant will not topple over as it grows larger, yet provide sufficient moisture, nutrients, and aeration to the plant. Organic matter (i.e., wood shavings, sugar cane bagasse, tree fern chips, taro peel, macadamia nut shells, or coffee parchment), volcanic cinder, or an artificial medium (i.e., rockwool, polyfenol foam) can serve as a good medium to anchor roots for anthurium plant growth and flower production.

 At some point in time, your plant will need to be repotted. Symptoms will include severe root massing at the base of the plant, bulging on the sides of the pot (if it's plastic), and overall loss of plant vigor. Repot your plant early in the year, when new roots start to grow. Use a 6 to 7 inch (15-16.25 cm) pot filled half way with rocks. When repotting, as much as possible try to match the same media that your anthurium is already growing in. This will help your plant to root faster into the new media.

Watering:

 The plant prefers high humidity and moist media. However, over-watering can cause root damage and sudden yellowing of leaves. While the plants love moisture, they do not like saturated media. So make sure to monitor your watering. Light, frequent watering is preferred to heavy soakings. Let the soil dry out in between watering. If you live in a hot area, water about once every 2 to 3 days; if you live in a rainy area, then water as necessary. Don't forget a light misting on the leaves to help with the humidity.

 Too much drying of the plant will cease the plant growth and burns the tip of the plant. The plant prefers a winter rest at 15 °C for about 6 weeks with little water. It helps plant to bloom profusely in the next season.

Fertilizer:

 Most growers use a slow time-release fertilizer monthly on their plants. Their roots are very sensitive to uncoated quick-release fertilizers, which can burn their sensitive roots. Even powder organic fertilizers can cause root burn. Liquid fertilizers may be applied as foliar applications or incorporated at lower concentrations into surface irrigation water. Most foliar fertilizers for orchids will work well with this plant. Consistency will be the key.

Pests and diseases:

 Thrips will be your worst insect problem. They can damage flowers and leaves, causing large brown streaks. In severe cases, the leaves and flowers will become severely disfigured. Don't let it get to this point. The best method to control thrips is to monitor your plants and treat them quickly before they get out of hand.

 Keeping your plants and their surroundings clean is good preventative measure. Pinching off unopen thrip-damaged flower buds and disposing of them in a sealed bag is another good control measure. That way you will get rid of thrips feeding inside of the infested buds before they have had a chance to come out and disperse to other plants.

 The single most important disease of anthuriums is called 'Anthurium Blight'. This is a bacterial disease with no know cure. Once the plant becomes infected, and the disease becomes systemic, the only course of action is to destroy the plant before it can infect other plants in your collection.

 Since there is no cure, the best course of action is prevention. Quarantining new plants, keeping your existing plants in good health, scouting for early signs of infection, and isolating suspect plants can go a long way towards preventing this disease from being introduced into your collection.

Propagation:

 Over time, Anthurium Snowy will shoot multiple plants from the same pot. By careful division of the mother plant, you can create multiple plant clones from just one plant. Division will also provide each plant with actively growing roots, which will in turn give you faster plant recovery.

 Cuttings will require more patience. The plants will become leggy and appear to be growing aerial roots. This is when you should consider taking cuttings. The cutting will consist of severing the leggy growth from the mother plant and planting it into a new pot.
