Anthurium - signs and superstitions

Do not ignore the signs that the green herald sends you. Perhaps you are given a chance to turn the situation in the right direction. Signs from male happiness usually have reliability.

Spathiphyllum and anthurium - in fact, is it the same plant or not? Both belong to the genus of perennial herbaceous evergreens of the Aroid or Aronnikov family. The distribution area of ​​both plants extends from Central to South America, spathiphyllum is also found in the Old World: Philippines, New Guinea, Palau, Solomon Islands.

Both plants are found in various forms, which are dominated by epiphytes, semi-epiphytes and hemiepiphytes. AT wild nature they grow on trees, sending out aerial roots that descend to the ground and feed on the litter of the rainforest.

But “female happiness” does not have a stem - the leaves are collected in a bunch directly from the soil, “ male flower»has thick, mostly shortened stems. Leaves of plants differ noticeably: in spathiphyllum - the leaf has an oval or lanceolate shape with a distinct median vein, the shape of the leaf repeats the shape of the petal; in anthurium, the leaf differs in shape from the petal (spatulate, rounded, with blunt tops), has a deep core base and has an oily sheen.

Inflorescences (cobs) of spathiphyllum have shades from pale green to white and oblong-elliptical shape. Anthurium is characterized by a variety of shapes and colors of the cob: cone-shaped, club-shaped, spiral; red, pink, orange, purple or white, or combinations thereof. The flowers of "male happiness" are more rigid and dense.

The names of both plants came from the merger of two Greek words. Spathiphyllum: "spat" - coverlet, "phyllum" - leaf; anthurium - "anthos" - color, "oura" - tail. Botanical reference books indicate Latin names: Spathiphyllum and Anthurium.

Reference! Thanks to the white flowers, spathiphyllum is also called " white sail”, and Anthurium, for the bright color of the flowers and the similarity of the shape of the flower with the grace of a bird, was nicknamed the “flamingo flower”. Anthurium has another nickname - "wax flower", given for excessive decorativeness, which resembles artificial flowers.

Spathiphyllum was discovered in the 70s of the 19th century by the German botanist G. Wallis in the jungles of Ecuador. Anthurium was discovered in the same period by the French botanist E.F. André during an expedition to South America.

In honor of both researchers, the most popular varieties of these plants were subsequently named.

And this is a spathiphyllum:

On the next photo you can see what the flowers look like if you take care of them properly.

Is it allowed to be placed side by side?

Since both the spathiphyllum and the beautiful anthurium create a harmonious tandem and look good side by side, the question of whether these flowers can be kept side by side disappears by itself. Although some flower growers "breed" flowers because of the light-loving nature of anthurium and the need for shading for spathiphyllum.

Can they be planted together in the same pot?

In spite of folk omens, experienced growers do not recommend growing plants in the same pot because they need different conditions planting and maintenance (different requirements for watering and lighting, the soil for planting spathiphyllum and anthurium is also different) and most likely they will not get along together. With a high degree of probability, the more fleshy and viable "male flower" will not allow the root system of the "female" to fully develop, and the latter will die.

Types of spathiphyllum and anthurium

There are about 45 varieties of spathiphyllum, the most popular are:

• Chopin- leaves and flowers elongated shape, peduncle pale green. The most unpretentious "female flower".
• cupido- stands out with large petioles at the base. It blooms for a short time and produces few peduncles, valued for the creamy color of the flower core.
• profusely blooming- lengthy and abundant flowering from March to October.
• Wallis- a small-growing variety that has become the "mother" for many hybrids.
• mauna loa- The most common hybrid variety, which blooms almost all year; the flower has an elegant beige cob.

Anthurium is the most numerous genus of its family, and has more than 900 varieties. The most famous:

Differences

Let's take a look at how plants differ.

Spathiphyllum reproduces mainly by cuttings or dividing the bush, rarely seeds. Anthurium can be propagated by dividing the bush, rooting side shoots, separating and germinating the root, cuttings and also from seeds.

Bloom

Spathiphyllum begins to bloom in spring, inflorescences last 1.5-2 months. Some species re-bloom in autumn. Spathiphyllum has practically no smell or it is light and not intrusive. Flowers of "female happiness" in their mass have White color, there may be species that have a greenish tint.

Anthurium is able to bloom from February to November when creating the appropriate microclimate. All types of antarium smell. Flowers of "male happiness" amaze with a variety of colors and shades, most often varieties that give flowers of red shades are grown at home.

Important! During the flowering period, it is not desirable to get water on the inflorescences of plants, otherwise the flowers may get sick and die.

Diseases

Spathiphyllum leaves are prone to chlorosis and gommosis. Anthurium leaves are prone to septoria, anthracosis (caused by fungal infections), fusarium wilt, rust, powdery mildew and bronze virus (caused by an infection carried by thrips). Viral diseases anthurium is not treated, the plant is to be destroyed.

If the rules of care are not followed, for both plants it is typical:

1. the appearance of root rot;
2. the appearance of spots on the leaves;
3. yellowing, drying edges;
4. change in leaf color.

What else can be grown with them in the same room?

On the contrary, plants that prefer shade and moisture will become good neighbors for spathiphyllums, for example:

• violet;
• fat woman;
• ficus;
• ferns and many others.

Useful video

We offer you to watch an informative video about spathiphyllum and anthurium:

On the last eighth of March, I was presented with an anthurium. As befits most flowers in pots, it bloomed beautifully for a week or two, and then began to fade inevitably. But after all, his mother-in-law gave it to me, which means that the death of the flower threatened me with a serious loss of the reputation of the hostess!

I searched the entire Internet, called flower girls, even went to a flower show. And that's what I learned about the flowering of anthurium ... I share this information with you - do not repeat my mistakes!

Ideally, the anthurium should begin to bloom in March - April.

No flowers? Most often, the problem lies in improper care, or lack of care as such. If you correct all the mistakes, your pet (by the way, it is sometimes also called a flamingo flower) will be covered with flowers after 2-3 months.

Wrong transplant

The roots should not “hang out” in a pot, otherwise the anthurium will throw all its forces not on flowering, but on their growth. Transplantation is done by transshipment. Ideal time: March to September. And do not damage the root, otherwise the flower will "lick its wounds" instead of flowering.

Wrong soil

Pay attention to whether the soil you have chosen is suitable for this particular type of plant. The earth can be bought ready-made or mixed at home. For example, it can be: universal soil plus coniferous bark in proportions of 1: 1.

Here you can also add perlite, coarse sand, needles, charcoal(little), sphagnum moss.

lack of light

Leaves can tell about this - lightened and stretched out. Moreover, it is interesting: in order to bloom, the anthurium needs a lot of sun (south or west window or phytolamp), but as soon as the first buds appear, the flower becomes too susceptible to light, so burns (yellow spots) may even appear on its leaves.

Too low or unstable room temperature

This capricious needs 22-24 degrees. Moreover, the temperature should not "jump". By the way, a room temperature below 20 degrees may not completely “cancel” the flowering of this plant, but simply delay the appearance of flowers for a month.

Wrong watering

Water should be soft (settled), watering is regular, but not excessive.

You need to water your pet in the morning, so you will check if there is any moisture left in the pot / pan. You can understand that it is time to water the flower on the ground: it must be dry not only outside, but also inside (dip your finger about a centimeter and check). During active periods of life (growth, flowering), more water is needed.

The material of the pot is also important: if it is clay, pour more water, since the clay "steals" part of it.

Traditionally, watering is carried out once a week in combination with spraying. And don't splash water on the flowers!

Draft

The flower is very afraid of them, so if you have old wooden windows, a flower in the cold season will be very uncomfortable on the windowsill.

Lack of "water procedures"

For complete happiness, anthurium needs moist air, spraying, wiping the leaves from dust with a slightly damp cloth, rinsing (for example, in the shower - if you have an orchid, then you understand what I mean).

Too little or too much food

In winter, the flower does not need to be fertilized. In the warm period (from May to September), you can buy fertilizer for flowering species and apply it 1-2 times a month, and only a third of the standard rate.

Before top dressing, pour into the soil a little pure water so that the plant does not burn the roots. By the way, the taste of this flower is also "democratic" kurpomet, manure, humus.

He doesn’t want to - we’ll force him: the tricks of the florist

Maximum light

Move the pot to the lighted side, wash the window, and if the day is still short, “lengthen” it with a fitolamp or led light bulb, including it for a couple of hours in the morning and evening.

Wintering

if you have covered balcony, where you can stably maintain a temperature of 15-18 degrees, in winter, transfer the plant there for 50-60 days. Move the phytolamp after him.

After 2 months, return the pot to a warm (24 degrees) room, water abundantly.

Bloom booster

Your baby needs phosphorus and potassium. They are in fertilizer for orchids, violets, roses, begonias. Not bad proved, in particular, fertilizer "Ideal". In addition, the plant can be sprayed with the Bud or Ovary flowering stimulator.

Stress

In early March, water the flower warm water(50 degrees).

Important! Such a procedure can be carried out no more than once a year!

Other popular questions about anthurium

1. Why are the flowers so small? Everything is simple here: the flower is missing something. Or light, or space in a pot (transplant into a larger vessel), or proper feeding. Enrich your pet's diet with phosphorus, potassium and nitrogen.
2. It not only does not bloom, but also does not grow - what is wrong? Most likely, the landing was wrong. If you have not damaged the roots, then the plant does not “taste” the soil you bought. Also, the reason may be a lack of moisture or sunlight.
3. The corners of the leaves have begun to turn yellow. So, the plant simply freezes through. Move it to more warm room or at least a corner. At the same time, if possible, at least for a day, reduce the humidity of the air (for example, turn off the humidifier). The second reason: sunburn, this has already been discussed above.
4. The leaves turn yellow or blacken (brown), and then completely fall off ... This is a disease that anthurium "awarded" another sick flowerpot. It is called septoria or anthracnose. Remove diseased leaves, do not spray the plant for a while. Feed it with standard fertilizer (you can also spray Fitosporin-M).
5. The leaves curl up and seem to shrink. This is also a disease, it is called powdery mildew. Fungicides will help (example: "Fitosporin").
6. The leaves curled up and turned black. It's a fungus gray rot. It calls excess moisture, especially at the roots (which is why the anthurium pot must have holes at the bottom and a tray). A drug called "Topsin" will help.
7. The leaves are just turning black. Something is wrong with the irrigation. One of two things: either there are no holes in the bottom of the pot and excess water stagnates near the roots, or you have not defended the water for irrigation, and it is too cold and hard.
8. Does the plant have pests? Yes! These are such "bugs" as the thyroid gland, aphids, spider mite. Prevention against their appearance is simple: rinse the leaves of anthurium with warm water (you can use a shower), at the same time wash off the dust, which will help the plant "breathe". If the pests have already started in the flowerpot, rinse the leaves with a sponge soapy water or buy an insecticide.
9. Can the plant be propagated? Yes, by dividing the bush into 2-3 parts. By the way, this procedure rejuvenates the bushes, having a positive effect on flowering.

Reproduction methods

There are several methods for plant propagation. Each grower chooses the one that is most convenient for him.

1. Cuttings are one of the simplest and most common methods. To use it, it is necessary to cut off the top of the mother plant about 15-20 cm long. It is desirable that it has several leaves. The cutting is rooted in a temporary pot with vermiculite. The optimal depth is about 5 cm. In about a month, roots will appear on the young seedling. After that, they can be transplanted to permanent place residence.
2. The male flower is often propagated by dividing the daughter stems. For this, the strongest side shoots carefully separated from the mother bush and planted in a separate container.
3. Much less often, the flower, which is the talisman of men, is propagated using seeds. The method is less popular due to the duration and complexity. However, some experienced gardeners still resort to it.

To obtain seeds from anthurium, pollination should be carried out. Periodically it is necessary to transfer pollen from one plant to another. For convenience, you can use a cotton swab. If you correctly perform all the manipulations, after a while a fruit will appear on the bush. It is necessary to wait for its full maturation and, with the utmost care, remove it with tweezers. On average, seeds take about 8 months to mature. After this time, they are removed from the fetus and thoroughly washed in a weak solution of potassium permanganate.

Spring - optimal time for transplanting anthurium. To make the plant feel comfortable, it is recommended to choose a wide, low pot equipped with a good drainage system. You should not choose too large a capacity, as this may adversely affect flowering.

The soil can be prepared independently. Experienced gardeners recommend mixing equally light proportions sod land, fibrous leafy soil and bog moss particles. The result is a soil that is as close as possible to what is found in the homeland of the plant. It is better if the substrate is loose. In this case, it will be possible to ensure the flow of air to the roots.

Fragile roots and leaves are easily injured, so you need to transplant with the utmost care. In the process, it is necessary to ensure that the rosette of leaves remains on the surface, while the roots must be covered with soil. If, in the process of intensive growth, the roots appeared outside, they can be covered with moistened moss. In the future, you need to make sure that it is constantly wet.

Male happiness is not among the fast-growing flowers, so it does not need frequent transplants. It is recommended to transfer the plant to a new pot no more than once every 2 years. With more frequent transplants root system and the foliage grows profusely, and the process of bud formation slows down. If you just bought a new bush in the store, do not rush to immediately move it to a new pot. Before you transplant a green pet, you need to give him a little time to adapt to the changed living conditions.
