Soil
The anthurium plowmanii loves soil, so be sure to provide it with a lot of different types. One popular option is an orchid potting mix made for epiphytes. That being said, the anthurium likes both moist and dry soil as well. Just make sure you watch out when watering because this anthurium is an epiphyte and does not like to be submerged in water.
If anthurium plowmanii are planted in an artificial pot, then an appropriate soil mixture should be chosen. It can range from a company-made mix to homemade compost or other organic materials and peat moss. The best types of soils for anthuriums include the following: topsoil, bark mix, loam, and peat moss.
Lighting
Lighting an anthurium plant is crucial to maintaining its health. Many people, however, think they are the only type of light an anthurium needs. This is not true at all! Anthuriums need a wide range of different types of lighting depending on their growth pattern and colouration:
Full sun – an anthurium plant that is in full sun needs to be watered more often, but at the same time they need much less fertilizer as an anthurium plant that is not in direct sunlight.
Partial shade – an anthurium should be planted where it will get partial shade and can grow without being completely shaded by other anthurium plants or an overhead tree canopy.
Indirect light – an anthurium that is grown under an overhang, for example in a porch area where it will get indirect light and be sheltered from the rain should not need as much watering because water droplets can’t reach the leaves easily.
Full shade – an anthurium grown in the shade of another anthurium plant or under an overhang should be watered much less often than one that is not around other plants.
Watering
Keep an anthurium plowmanii moist. In the winter months, it is best to water an anthurium plant only once a week with enough water that will get all the way down to the roots in order for them not to be watered from below and staying dry on top.
Towards the end of an anthurium plowmanii’s growing season, an anthurium plant will need to be watered a little more often. As long as it is not in full sun and has adequate drainage, an anthurium should only need about one inch worth of water per day on average.
