Supporting a Top-Heavy Anthurium

Anthuriums rarely need support if they receive adequate bright light. A floppy plant usually indicates insufficient light, causing weak, elongated growth.

Solutions

  1. Move to a brighter location (bright indirect light, some morning sun).
  2. If the stem is too long, cut off the top section with a few leaves and aerial roots.
  3. Root the cutting in water or moist potting mix.
  4. The base will often produce new shoots.

Send a photo for specific pruning guidance. Staking is a temporary fix; better light solves the root cause.
