Does anyone know why these two are always curled and droopy? The others look happy and fine, though the whole plant has been through a little repotting/overwatering/root rot situation. But they basically stay like this no matter if the soil is dry or not. I’m stumped.

What time of mix are you using? Compost mix with perlite? If so it’s retaining too much water and that’s why you are experiencing root rot, or watering too much, and if it’s two separate plants, it could be due to the lack of humidity.

Anthuriums like a decent amount of humidity, which cannot be achieved by misting as it disperses into the room, and water sitting on leaves can lead to bacterial, or fungal infections.

Yes to the soil mix and added orchid bark so it’s pretty aerated, I think, but maybe not enough.  
I’ll give it some time to see if the repotting helps.  
Thanks for your help!

they also might be going through a little shock, its happened to me when repotting

### Planty28 a commenté le 2024-11-19

Could be transplant shock, keep an eye though cause if they don’t start to perk up roots are most likely damaged or rotted to the point they can’t absorb water or nutrients anymore :(

The soil looks soaked. I would recommend letting it dry completely before watering and maybe not so much water.

I had just watered it after it was bone dry all the way to the bottom.
