Anthurium: The Unique Heart-Shaped Flower

Anthurium Flowers Anthurium Flowers

Anthuriums are long-lasting tropical flowers that will bloom year-round with proper conditions such as the temperature, potting mix, watering, light and fertilizer. They are known for the large beautiful foliage and the surface of the flower is semi-glossy. The stems may grow 15 to 20 inches long depending on the spathe. The spathe is the colored part of flower which comes in red, green, bi-color, shades of pink, peach and white with a long tail. All parts of the plant are poisonous.

They can be used in exotic tropical flower arrangements by itself or with Orchids, Proteas, Bird of Paradise and Ginger.
