Anthurium, the classic beauty with those glossy, heart-shaped leaves and bright, waxy flowers is such a beautiful piece of natural art.

Anthurium andraeanum (aka Flamingo Flower), also called flamingo flowers for their unique, bright red, green, and white colors, they can bloom repeatedly for long periods. Blooming varieties are distinctive with heart-shaped waxy spathes (i.e., modified leaf around the flower) and red or yellow spikes. 

Many anthuriums are climbers, and all need high humidity and warmth to thrive.

Growth rate is slow or moderate and dependent on ample light but susceptible to sunburn. 

This one in a 4 inch nursery container.

Plant care: 

Light- Bright, Indirect light. Partial light.  Anthuriums prefer sun over shade but too much direct light can scorch the leaves. Inadequate light causes poor growth and few flowers. The ideal location for your plant provides six hours of bright, indirect sunlight daily.

Soil- Well-draining

Water- Allow soil to dry out between waterings.
