Description:
The Anthurium is a striking tropical plant known for its glossy, heart-shaped leaves and its vibrant, ornamental spadix and spathe ā often mistaken for flowers. These plants grow naturally as epiphytes, attaching to trees in humid rainforests, though they also thrive as potted plants indoors. The showy "flower" of the Anthurium is actually a colorful spathe (usually red, pink, white, or orange) with a spadix that holds small, tightly packed flowers.
Popular species like Anthurium andraeanum and Anthurium scherzerianum are prized for their vivid color and long-lasting blooms, making them a centerpiece in any room. Anthuriums are also a favorite among breeders, available in an array of bold colors and unique shapes.
ā ļø Note: Anthurium is toxic if ingested and may irritate skin or eyes due to calcium oxalate crystals. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
