Percentage of shade required for growing anthurium in summer is __________.
Answer: D
Anthurium needs about 80 per cent shade in summer.
Anthurium is a shade-loving tropical plant. Direct sunlight scorches its leaves and fades the spathes, so it is grown under shade nets that cut out about 75-80% of the light, the higher level in summer when the sun is strongest. Too much shade, on the other hand, gives weak plants and few flowers.
Shade of only 50-70% lets in too much summer light for anthurium, though such levels suit sun-tolerant cut flowers.
