History of the Anthurium Karma Red
The Anthurium Karma Red is an attractive and colourful anthurium variety that delights with its richly coloured flowers and glossy, deep green foliage. Particularly striking are the bright red bracts, which give the plant its name and an intense splash of colour. The actual flowers sit on the characteristic spadix in the centre of the coloured bract. Anthuriums originally come from the tropical regions of Central and South America, where they grow in warm, humid forests. As a houseplant, the Karma Red, with its exotic appearance, makes an elegant and colourful eye-catcher.
Care as a houseplant:
• Light: Bright position with plenty of indirect light. Some morning or evening sun is well tolerated. Avoid intense midday sun, as the leaves and coloured bracts can be sensitive to it.
• Temperature: Ideally 18–28 °C; avoid temperatures below 16 °C if possible.
• Humidity: Medium to high; around 60–80 % is ideal. Increased humidity supports healthy leaf growth and a long flowering period.
• Substrate: Loose, airy and free-draining aroid substrate, for example made of pine bark, perlite, coco chips and some high-quality potting soil.
• Watering: Water moderately and let the substrate dry out slightly between waterings. Be sure to avoid waterlogging.
• Feeding: During the growing season, feed about every 2–3 weeks with a weakly dosed liquid fertiliser for flowering or foliage plants.
• Special features: Under good conditions, the striking red flower spathes can appear over a longer period. Faded flower heads can be carefully removed so that the plant invests its energy in new growth.
• Important for pet owners: Anthuriums are not suitable for consumption and should be placed out of reach of cats, dogs and other pets. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation if chewed or swallowed.
Overwintering tips:
Water a little less in winter and keep it as bright and warm as possible. Temperatures should remain as constant as possible above 16 °C. Avoid cold draughts and sharp temperature fluctuations. Increased humidity can be helpful when the heating makes the air dry.
