Repot anthuriums as needed when the roots fill up the container. Use a pot with drainage holes, and increase the pot size by 1 or 2 inches at a time. Fill it halfway with pebbles, then use a mixture of three parts orchid peat, one part leaf mold and one part sphagnum moss.ertilize anthuriums every other watering with a 9-3-6 or 12-12-12 water-soluble fertilizer mixed at a rate of 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water. Use this solution in place of water once every one to three months.

Establishing good watering practices can be a bit tricky at first for a new orchid owner.
