Anthurium

Anthurium

Anthurium is a striking tropical indoor plant celebrated for its glossy heart-shaped leaves and vibrant spathes that resemble delicate, colorful flowers. Its upright growth habit and bold foliage make it an eye-catching addition to living spaces, offices, or tropical-themed interiors. The glossy green leaves and brightly colored spathes add a sculptural, decorative element that elevates any indoor plant display.

This tropical plant belongs to the Araceae family and thrives in warm, humid environments. Native to Central and South America, Anthurium grows best in bright, indirect light that mimics its natural understory habitat. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate foliage, while insufficient light may reduce flowering. Anthurium’s slow, upright growth habit and long-lasting spathes make it a favorite for collectors and plant enthusiasts seeking a tropical indoor centerpiece.

Ideal for gardeners with some indoor plant experience, Anthurium requires moderate care. The soil should be kept consistently moist but well-draining, with watering reduced in the winter months when growth slows. Fertilize lightly during the growing season to encourage healthy foliage and prolonged blooms. With proper care, this tropical indoor flowering plant will produce striking foliage and colorful spathes that last for weeks, bringing a touch of the tropics to your home.

Please note, Anthurium is not pet-friendly. Its leaves and spathes contain calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation or gastrointestinal upset if ingested by cats or dogs. Keep the plant out of reach of pets to ensure safety. Upon arrival, allow the plant to acclimate gradually to its new environment, avoiding sudden changes in light or temperature, so it establishes strong, healthy growth.

Sun Requirements ▾

Prefers bright, indirect light. Too much direct sun can scorch the leaves, while too little light can reduce flowering.

Watering Instructions ▾

Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1–2 inches feel dry. Anthuriums dislike sitting in water, so ensure proper drainage.

Care Tips ▾

Soil: Requires a well-draining, airy mix—a blend of peat-based potting soil with orchid bark and perlite works best. Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer to encourage blooms. Reduce feeding in fall and winter. Humidity: Prefers high humidity (60%+). If indoor air is dry, use a humidity tray, mist occasionally, or place near a humidifier.
