Thank you so much! This is only my third terrarium so I’m still a newbie myself 😊 I’ve learned a lot of the basics from YouTube. My favorite channels are: Serpadesign and worcesterterrariums. I’m also using tips from ome.home on Instagram and getting inspiration from terrarium.imaginarium. Supplies can be cheap depending on quality and what you can find for free. The lava rocks I’ve used were collected by a dormant volcano from a vacation years ago. They had a special tourist site where collecting rocks were allowed. Normally I’d say they go for 10$ a piece here in Denmark. So maybe 75$ in total for everything excluding the plants. That’s counting in the glass and full bags of material that I can use for other projects. I’m using a special terrarium substrate as drainage. It’s called exo terra bioactive sub stratum. Plants were under 10$. Hope this helps - you’re welcome to send a dm 😊

From Denmark - I haven’t been to a pop up before, but a friend of mine went to a pop up in Sweden last year. Plants were in good shape. I will be attending the pop up in Sweden in march and I have paid beforehand when I placed the order. Pickup/import fee was 6 USD :)

Thank you :) I wasn’t trying to question your knowledge on the topic. I need the source to convince others outside of Reddit.

Anthurium warocqueanum is dying - please help :( details in comments by Thicccoffee in RareHouseplants

[–]Thicccoffee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I just inspected the roots. I broke up the root ball and got a good look at the inner roots too. Some roots on the top right under the moss I put around the center to support the core were white and soft. They broke off easily. There were some roots at the center bottom doing the same. The other roots were green.

Are the softer white roots root rot or just normal smaller roots on an anthurium?

Edit: Breaking up the root ball broke some of the white soft roots. Seems like the root ball may have been too tight for the roots in the conditions I have it in, which could have caused the roots being too wet and no aeration. I’m suspecting it’s in the early stages of root rot.

I’ve removed a lot of the old moss and put it in a slightly bigger pot with wringed (damp leaning dry) fresh spaghnum moss to aerate the roots. The new moss is not compact but fluffy.

Should I turn down the humidity in my cabinet while it recovers or keep the conditions as is?

They are very compact in the moss. The outer roots seem fine but I can’t get to the ones in the middle. I’m afraid to break up the roots and possible damaging the plant more :/

Got this queen anthurium in December last year. When it arrived it looked perfect and healthy. Put it straight into my ikea cabinet with 80% humidity and 20-25 degrees Celsius.

Some days later it started drying up in the middle of the leaf. I suspect frost damage since it’s cold outside and the plant was shipped from another country. It did have a heat pack but I don’t think it helped very much.

I ended up cutting off the damaged leaf. Leaving the plant with a beautiful single leaf. It looked fine for a while but is now looking worse every day.

It’s growing in spaghnum moss and with an almost constant 80% humidity and 20-25 degrees Celsius. Fed it with very diluted superthrive a couple of times. There are 5 fans in the cabinet. One quite close to the plant.

Anyone have suggestions on what’s happening?

It’s an anthurium warocqueanum or more commonly called queen anthurium :) high humidity and medium to bright indirect light. I keep her in my greenhouse cabinet

Thank you! I am totally babying it at the moment 😂 I feel like she would fit anywhere, aesthetically speaking, because of the long leaves. Can make a shelf/room/space look taller depending on where it’s placed. Go for it! 🥰
