ANTHURIUM SCHERZERIANUM 
One of the most exotic of tropical plants suitable for the home is the Anthurium 
Scherzerianum. 
Offerings of these plants by us is limited to the red and varigated hybrids of which 
there are many types. Some in solid red and others in spotted varieties of red of 
many shades. 
Growing the plants in the home has become increasingly popular as the prices are now 
within the reach of all. Small plants will bloom but the flower will naturally be 
smaller until the plant increases in size. 
The growing requirements are simple. Ample water with good drainage. Any temperature 
above 55 degrees and a north or south window will give good results. Syringing the 
leaves or washing them when dusty will be beneficial. Although they like humidity 
and can be grown over a shallow pan filled with cinders they do want drainage. The 
resting period is usually in the late winter although we do have some in bloom all 
thru the year. While resting it is well not to overwater. 
Plants shipped out of pots may be repotted in a mixture of one third each of peat, 
sand and light soil. They also do very well in osmunda and screenings of orchid peat 
would be excellent. Straight sphagnum is not recommended as it dies and becomes 
water logged and sour. This can be used however as a top dressing to encourage roots 
and after they form the top may be cut out and a new plant started. 
Diseases are few and the only attention is to spray when new growth starts as plant 
lice will attack the new growth and sometimes a flower as it is forming. A mild 
solution of Red Arrow or D D T will kill them. 
Flowers will last several weeks and large plants will produce 4 to 6 blooms a year. 
Since the flower lasts about a month you are assured of a continuous growth for 
several months. 
Plants will be shipped out of pots, bare root, outside of beetle zone and to Panama, 
Puerto Rico, Cuba and Hawaii.
