Can Anthurium be kept indoors? Grow it the way I do, and it won't die off, blooming year after year without fail, making everyone envious

In previous posts, some flower lovers asked about Anthurium. I've been a bit busy lately. Maybe you're still out traveling, but I've already started work, so updates have been a bit slow. I've been adjusting my schedule recently and will gradually share more flower-growing experience with more flower lovers. Some flower lovers may have seen online that Anthurium is toxic and can't be kept at home? Today let me sum up a series of care questions about Anthurium!

1. Can Anthurium really be kept at home?

The Anthurium plant is mildly toxic, but this isn't a reason why you can't keep flowers at home. My grandma has kept a pot for five years already, so that day I even made a point of asking the flower shop owner, and she also said it's fine. Note that I suggest placing just 1-2 pots of flowers in the bedroom at most, and it's best not to put them near the bed. No matter what kind of flower, it's best not to place it by the bed. This way you can improve air quality without having it compete for oxygen.

2. Why does my Anthurium look like a frost-bitten eggplant as soon as winter comes?

Anthurium is a tropical plant, so it needs suitable temperatures (15-28), so here's a reminder for flower lovers in the north: pay attention to keeping your flowers warm, but don't put them next to the radiator either, because Anthurium likes humidity. So in winter when my home has heating, I wrap the whole flower in plastic wrap and spray water inside, which provides a certain humid environment. Doing this is a great help to Anthurium's growth.

3. Why are my Anthurium's leaves getting paler and smaller?

Actually the key cause of this problem is lighting. Although it's a plant that likes partial shade, remember to give it a certain intensity of light, so that the Anthurium spathes will be bright red and bloom bigger and bigger.

4. Can I spray liquid fertilizer on Anthurium's leaves?

Of course not. If you look carefully, you'll notice Anthurium's leaves are the glossy green kind, which is actually a waxy layer on the surface, and spraying this waxy leaf surface gives low absorption efficiency. You can fertilize once every half month. Remember to apply light fertilizer frequently! This way it will keep blooming.

Of course, I think my shaping isn't very good yet. If you have good suggestions for pruning the plant's shape, feel free to share them.
