The Anthurium (Anthurium andraeanum) — which we also call the flamingo flower — brings an accent into any room. In the photo, several boldly red bracts are in bloom in the typical heart shape, accompanied by the slender yellow spadix in the centre of each flower. The leaves underneath are heart-shaped, dark green and glossy.
With good care, Anthuriums flower almost all year round. They like a bright spot without harsh midday sun and a steady room temperature — that means no cold draughts and no place directly above a heater. With watering, it likes a regular routine but no wet feet. We give it a little room-temperature water once a week and pour off any excess from the decorative pot after a short while.
It enjoys humidity. If you have a spray bottle, you can mist the leaves occasionally — but keep the flowers themselves dry.
The Anthurium is delivered in a simple grey decorative pot, as you see in the photo. The decorative pot may differ slightly from the photo, depending on what we currently have available in our atelier.
If you have any care questions, just write to us — we at MO BLUMEN on Wallensteinstraße are happy to help. more houseplants.
