Feature
For an easy-to-grow and low-maintenance houseplant, Cobra Anthurium is one to consider. Grown for its foliage, the Cobra Anthurium is a strong plant with vigorous growth. It produces large, leathery green leaves that take on a shade of purple with age. This plant is a great choice for purifying the air and providing a focal interest indoors.
Best Locations For Growing Cobra Anthurium Plant
Cobra Anthurium will thrive when grown in any room, just as long as it doesn’t receive any burning midday sun or large temperature fluctuations.
Cobra Anthurium Sunlight Requirements
Preferring bright, but indirect light, Cobra Anthurium is ideal for growing near an east-, west- or north-facing window. This anthurium is a tough plant; however, avoid placing it near a south-facing window where it may be scorched by direct light.
Cobra Anthurium Plant Care
Preferring high humidity levels, the Cobra Anthurium benefits from regular misting, a constant temperature of 65 to 75°F and protection from any cold drafts. Being low maintenance, the only pruning this plant requires is removal of its browning or dead leaves at the base.
Watering Cobra Anthurium
This plant prefers consistently moist soil. Water it regularly, when the top 2 inches of soil are dry to touch. To provide higher humidity levels, the plant can be placed on a tray of wet pebbles.
Feeding Cobra Anthurium
Although not strictly necessary, the Cobra Anthurium can benefit from being fed with a general houseplant fertilizer mixed at half strength from spring until fall.
