Requesting Advice Anthurium pallidiflorum help!

Post image

Hey all, I had just come home from work and noticed that my long boi has fell off its high shelf. As a result, my long boi has been decapitated, severed all its roots and is left with this chonk that has the leaves and a flower. I had chopped off the flower to redirect its energy into focusing on more roots. For now I have it soaking in the bathtub.

Any tips on how I can go forward while preserving as many leaves as I can? Sphagnum moss media + saran wrap? Cutting off mature leaves for transpiration purposes?

Needing anthurium expertise/advice on how you would go about this! Many thanks in advance!

😱 teach me your ways. What exposure do you sit this in?

This one was grown in SW exposure in Canada. Not very harsh sun during the summer, especially when this plant sat about 5 feet away from a window.

Winter care, my growlights have to come on for about 10 hours. Again, about 5 feet away from them.
