🌿 Anthurium ‘Dorayaki’ Care Guide

Dorayaki is all about bold velvet beauty — famous for its thick, perfectly rounded leaves with a rich velvety texture and striking silver veining. Compact, luxurious, and highly collectible, this exceptional Anthurium is a favourite among aroid enthusiasts for its unique shape and unforgettable foliage. 🌿✨

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light
• Medium light is tolerated, but growth slows noticeably
• Avoid direct sun — velvet foliage can scorch or lose its rich finish
• Bright filtered light encourages larger, thicker leaves and stronger veining

💧 Water

• Keep lightly moist, but never soggy
• Allow the top layer of the substrate to dry slightly between waterings
• Use a chunky, airy Anthurium mix (bark, perlite, coco coir and sphagnum moss)
• Excellent drainage is essential for healthy roots

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers high humidity (70–85%)
• Higher humidity encourages healthy foliage and clean unfurling
• Good airflow is just as important as humidity
• Warm, stable temperatures promote consistent growth

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during active growth
• Use a balanced diluted liquid fertiliser
• Reduce feeding during cooler months when growth slows

🌱 Quick Tips

• Thick leaves develop their best texture in stable conditions
• Avoid touching new leaves while they're unfurling
• Filtered or rainwater is beneficial if your tap water is hard
• Repot only when necessary, as Anthuriums prefer being slightly root-bound
