Our greenhouse is set to go on in the winter at
about 60 degrees but most Anthurium are from higher elevations and really thrive
at such temperatures.
Tom,

Anthurium
Hi
Tom,
The
heater I purchased supposedly does not need a vent, but is “self venting” and
was sold as a greenhouse heater. You have given pause to worry now! But then, my
greenhouse is fairy small (17 feet x nine feet with an eight foot peak), and I
have a strong exhaust fan, a good circulating fan, and three sliding glass
windows that I use for vents, one of which is immediately above the
heater.
Is
the temperature range I mentioned in my last missive reasonable for the
Anthuriums?
Happy
Thanksgiving,
Christopher

Dear
Chris:
Will this propane burner be exhausted in your greenhouse. You have to be
concerned with the combustibles because as I recall we caused leaves to fall off
plants by using a burner within the greenhouse.

Anthurium
Dear
Tom,
Thank you for the
advice. Anthurium is a new interest of mine, as I typically have been focused on
the tuber bearing aroids (Amorphophallus, Dracontium, Anchomanes, Cryptocorne,
Arum, Typhonium, etc.) But, I am pleased that my Anthurium harrisi has just
pushed out its first flower.
I am trying to keep the
light levels the same as what the parent plant has. The parent is in a
whitewashed greenhouse under a canopy of tree ferns, orchids and Monstera. The
leaves on the parent are nearly black with silvery white veins. The two ‘babies’
came from the base of the main stem, where there was very little light
penetration, and these leaves are very pale green. So, I am a little concerned
about them being burned. I have them under my son’s orchid bench, in a high
humidity (80%) environment, with the orchids that need low light conditions. So,
as our winter sets in, temperatures in my greenhouse run from 12 degrees C at
night to 26 degrees C during the day. I am installing a propane heater that will
keep the temperatures a bit higher. Any further comments or
suggestions?
Thanks,
Christopher

Amorphophallus and Anthurium
Dear
Christopher:
It is probably not the extent of darkness that is important but the temperature
and the degree of humidity. If you bring it up too high in the greenhouse
the light would be better but it could be too hot. Obviously plants respond
favorbly to light, not darkness but the temperature control must be monitored
because if you have nice humidity with too much light you will develop too much
heat. Alternatively conditions too dark might not work either. Clearly regrowing
sick or weak plants is a slow process some times.
Tom
