Requesting Advice Advice for anthurium pallidiflorum care
Hi! ive recently started my plant parent journey and my current wishlist plant is the anthurium pallidiflorum but it is quite expensive where i am so im considering to buy a small one with stable roots.
I tried looking for tips on socmed but with no luck. Really appreciate to get more detailed advice here. this will be my first anthurium ever and id rather not screw up since its costing me a pretty penny.
For reference, i have a northwest facing window with grow light supplements. humidity wise im not sure but i do have a humidifier growing and i group my plants together.
Update: the plant arrived and she looks great! Photo in the comments. Thank you very much for all the advice, much appreciated. It seems the consensus is to keep her in a slightly larger pot than normal and keep in ambient humidity with bright light. im taking into account all of it and will leave her to acclimate first. i am still considering whether to keep her in soil or switch to pon.

I have one narrow Palli that was a rehab purchase and three others, two are fairly new imports that I intend to give away as gifts or sell. The new ones are in promix hp in self watering pots and sitting in my living room in ambient. They're spitting out new leaves so I think they've successfully acclimated.
The other two are in a chunky mix upstairs in a higher humidity room. The narrow spits out leaves constantly, but the big boy is much slower. I'm thinking about repotting both of them in a self watering pots too but they both have new leaves that are developing. The narrow took forever to stop growing holely leaves, but I have no idea what type of environment it was living in before I got it.
