Anthurium is an attractive evergreen plant, also known as Flamingo Flower, Boy Flower, Painter’s Palette or Painted Tongue. This spectacular plant can look gorgeous and unique in any interior. It can bloom all year around, if the conditions are suitable for its growing. The flowers of Anthurium are like varnished, they can be of different shape and color. It can create gorgeous view by its blooming in any quiet corner of the house. The plant has the ability to absorb the exhaust gas and smell of plastic, so it refreshes air in the house. It grows best in bright spots with no direct sunlight. It can tolerate partial shade, but the brightest color of the leaves will appear in bright diffused sunlight. Water the plant with approximately 1/2 glass of room temperature water when the top few inches of soil seem to be on drier side to the touch (about once a week depending on the growing conditions). Don’t let the plant sit in soggy soil. Anthurium is shipped in 4” pot. The plant prefers high level of air humidity. Anthurium must be watered systematically, and moistened with a sprayer, but preferably only leaves. It doesn’t stand drafts, which have negative effect on the plant. Feed the plant with organic or mineral fertilizers during spring and summer once in two-three weeks. The height of the plant shipped varies from 12” to 14” which is measured from the bottom of the pot to the very top of the plant. The width of the plant is between 8” to 10”. The repotting of the plant is made once in a few years in the early spring, since the soil can lose all its useful properties during this time. The pot should be just a little bigger than the previous one. Your plant may look little different from the advertised; however, be assured, we handpicked our plants to meet your expectations.
