Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


Thick, wavy leaves rise from the central base of Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’, building a broad bird’s-nest rosette over time. Red-toned veins or flushing add warm colour detail across the firm green foliage.

The plant gains width as the rosette expands, with foliage spreading outward from the base. A stable pot helps balance the leaf mass as mature leaves gain size and weight.



Foliage traits on Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Growth form: Self-heading bird’s-nest habit with leaves arranged from a central base.
  • Leaf texture: Thick, firm foliage with a leathery feel.
  • Leaf edge: Wavy to undulating margins that become more noticeable as leaves size up.
  • Colour detail: Red veins or red flushing can show under suitable filtered light.
  • Leaf emergence: New leaves rise from the central crown before spreading outward.
  • Pot behaviour: Mature plants benefit from a stable pot that balances the broad rosette.


Rosette growth and indoor space


The foliage of Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’ expands outward from the centre, so the plant needs more horizontal space as it grows. Leaves can become broad and weighty, and the pot should remain stable when the rosette leans toward the light.

Brighter filtered light can bring out stronger red tones, but the leaves should be protected from hot direct sun. A warm, sheltered indoor position with room around the rosette keeps the leaf edges from rubbing and reduces trapped moisture between crowded leaves.



Care for Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Light: Keep it in bright filtered light. Direct sun through glass can scorch the thick leaves, especially during hot hours.
  • Water: Water thoroughly, then allow the upper layer of the mix to dry before the next watering.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity keeps leaf edges cleaner, especially while new leaves are opening from the centre.
  • Temperature: Warm, steady indoor temperatures suit the rosette best. Avoid cold drafts around the base.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, breathable Anthurium mix so the central root mass does not stay waterlogged.
  • Pot stability: When the plant becomes wide, use a pot heavy enough to hold the rosette upright.
  • Outdoor summer care: In warm weather it can sit in a sheltered bright spot outside once acclimated, but it should come back indoors before nights turn cool.


Common issues with Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Brown margins: Usually linked to dry air, inconsistent watering, direct sun or a root ball that has dried too far.
  • Curled leaves: Check for a dry root ball, compacted mix or heat stress near glass.
  • Reduced red colour: Lower light can soften the red flushing, while excessive sun can damage the leaf surface.
  • Root stress: Heavy wet substrate around the central base can lead to yellowing and soft roots.
  • Older leaf pests: Inspect the undersides and leaf bases for scale, mites or mealybugs.


Safety for Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’ should be kept away from pets and small children. Chewed leaves or stems can release calcium oxalate crystals that irritate the mouth and digestive tract.



Name etymology and background


The genus name Anthurium comes from Greek roots meaning flower and tail, referring to the spadix. The cultivated name ‘Big Red Bird’ refers to the broad bird’s-nest rosette, red-toned foliage detail and thick wavy leaves spreading from a central base.

Great for big dogs
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
Our pup is now 15 months old (nearly 110 lb and still growing). We got this ball when he was 3 or 4 months old. GOODS - - Our pup fetches with extreme drive, and the rope helps him quickly snatch the ball off the ground (versus a tennis ball, in which we are worried he will go head over heels at times) - Our pup also loves to play fetch in the water, and this ball floats great and again, the rope gives another point to bite onto - The yellow color is easy to see, even in grass - Our pup typically fetches the ball, and leaves the rope mostly out of his mouth. So, throwing the ball doesn't result in saliva-covered hands - It's pretty easy to throw the ball 50', and possible to throw it 100' - It doesn't roll/bounce, so if you are for example playing fetch on your front lawn and are concerned with a tennis ball rolling into the street, this one alleviates that issue - Our pup is spoiled and has several balls. This is absolutely his go to ball. We have woken up in the morning before to see him standing next to the bed with the ball in his mouth, asking us to get up and play. BADS - - Occasionally when he goes to fetch it, he will step on the rope as he tries to pull up on the ball. - We have gotten this ball stuck in trees multiple times. In fact, there is one stuck on the roof of our church from playing fetch on the lawn there. :-/ Not a fault of the ball, but if you start whipping it around like nunchucks, it might not go where you want. - The near max you can through this ball is 100'. And since it doesn't roll/bounce, throw distance is throttled. We often play fetch in a local baseball field, and have no issue wearing him out with this ball. However, if you are planning on throwing a ball the distance of half a football field, you might want to consider something else. SIZE - - We purchased both the medium and the large. Even though our pup is huge and can fit a soccer ball in his mouth, he still prefers the medium. It's easier for him to get in his mouth and breath while running back. The medium is the size of an orange, whereas the large is the size of a grapefruit. DURABILITY - - We have gone through about 4 of these balls, BUT this is because we lost 3 of them. We believe he dropped one out of the car window while we were driving, one is on the roof of our church, and I forget about the other one. On the first one we had, the stitching behind the black tape was down to a few threads after about 5 months. Given duration we use these balls (every day) and the joy he gets from them, I feel the durability is good for the price. - We do play tug with the ball at times, and no issues there Enjoy!

Good but better options out there.
Good ball, but is a cheaper version of the Foamster sold online. The rope is cheap and comes apart, and can be abrasive to a dogs mouth. The Foamster uses a higher quality ball and are more durable and use grippy biothane straps rather than cheap rope. They are also made to order in the USA with lots of fun colors. Worth the extra money if your dog likes these balls.

Fun toy for fetch
Size: Medium, Number of Items: 1
Daisy loves this toy. I found it from her dog trainer, and it makes rewarding her with a quick tug of war and fetch really easy. Also it’s shockingly durable. It looks like foam, but she has not destroyed this one.

Heavy chewer approved.
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
My pomsky will destroy a toy in minutes. Ropes, and the "indestructible" nylon type stuffs are no match for my furry shark. This ball has stood up to him like David. He loves the crunch and it is so much more tolerable than a squeaker. These will be a staple in his toy box - Chuckit toys are really the most durable dog toys I have found in three years.
