# hello! i am not new to plants but am not yet an anthurium girlie. i…

_Posted by cherrbear🐻 on 2024-10-30_

hello! i am not new to plants but am not yet an anthurium girlie. i have one so far, a lux, \& i’m looking to get more into anthurium. i was wondering which y’all recommend for a beginner? i want to get one of the regular looking veiny ones \& want to stick with a non-hybrid so i can slowly start to get to know all the main species’ characteristics. don’t be mad i’m saying this but they all kind of look the same to me lol but i’m willing to learn. is there an option from these choices that is not terribly fussy \& doesn’t get damaged too easily? 😆

\- a. crystallinum  
\- a. forgetii  
\- a. magnificum  
\- a. clarinervium

i’m also gonna get a strappy one! either the vittariifolim or a wendlingeri 😁

thank you!

the magnificum or crystallinum are great easy going plants in my experience!

I would second Crystallinum, but would add Clarinervium, he can take a bit more accidental underwatering as he has the root system for it. The Forgettii prefers more moisture in my experience, My Mag is growing weirdly warped leaves!
