The four essentials

Care at a glance

Light

Position in bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sunlight may cause the white spathes to scorch, while too little light can lead to fewer blooms.

Water thoroughly once the topsoil feels dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

Humidity & temperature

Keep at temperatures between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Avoid placing your plant near drafts, heaters, or air conditioning units to maintain consistent environmental conditions.

Pet safety

While stunning, the Anthurium Andraeanum 'White' is toxic if ingested and can cause skin irritation. Always handle with care and keep away from pets and children.

After delivery

Help your plant settle in

A little travel stress is normal. Keep the first few days simple.

1

Unpack gently

Remove the natural wood strands from the soil surface. They kept soil in place during shipping.

2

Check before watering

Feel the soil first and follow the plant-specific watering cue above. Do not water only because it arrived.

3

Let it rest

Place it in the recommended light and keep it away from heating vents, cold drafts and harsh direct sun.

4

Keep its nursery pot

If you chose an upgraded pot, leave the plant in its nursery pot inside it. Decorative moss may stay or be removed.

Quick troubleshooting

Check the simplest causes first and change one part of the routine at a time.

  • Drooping after delivery: A little travel stress is normal. Keep conditions steady and give the plant time to settle.
  • Yellow or soft leaves: Check whether the soil is staying too wet before watering again.
  • Brown or crisp edges: Review watering consistency, humidity, nearby vents and exposure to harsh direct sun.

When in doubt: wait, check the soil again and compare what you see with the care guidance above.
