About this Item
The Red Anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum), or Flamingo Flower, is a popular tropical, low-maintenance indoor plant known for its glossy, heart-shaped dark green leaves and vibrant red waxy spathes (leaves) with a yellow spadix. They bloom nearly year-round, offer air-purifying benefits, and thrive in bright, indirect light.
Key Characteristics & Care
- Appearance: Features shiny, dark green foliage and long-lasting red bracts (often mistaken for flowers) that can last up to eight weeks.
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.
- Watering: Requires consistent moisture but not waterlogged soil; allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings.
- Temperature & Humidity: Thrives in temperatures between 65°F – 80°F (18°C – 27°C) and high humidity (60–80%).
- Soil: Needs well-drained, porous, or peaty soil (e.g., potting mix with perlite or orchid bark).
- Toxicity: Toxic to humans and pets if ingested, causing mouth/throat irritation, and the plant can cause skin irritation.
- Height: Typically grows 1–2 feet tall.
Maintenance Tips
- Fertilizer: Feed with a phosphorus-rich liquid fertilizer (diluted) during the growing season to encourage blooming.
- Cleaning: Gently clean leaves to remove dust for better photosynthesis.
- Placement: Ideal for warm, humid areas like bathrooms or kitchens.
