Live Anthurium Plant Decor for Plant Lovers

The Anthurium, a vibrant indoor-friendly live tropical plant, boasts long-lasting, captivating flowers that have inspired several common names, such as flamingo flower, painter's palette, flamingo lily, and tailflower. Laceleaf is another nickname for this alluring plant. These waxy, puckered, palette-shaped, vividly red flowers are, in fact, modified leaves called spathes. Each glossy flower encloses an erect creamy yellow spadix (floral spike aka "tailflower"), contrasting with the rich green heart-shaped foliage.

Unlike many flowering plants, Anthurium blooms are remarkably long-lasting, gracing your space for several weeks at a time. These compact plants are perfect for tabletops, shelves, or windowsills, instantly brightening up any space with their vibrant color. Anthuriums can be featured in your living room, office, or even your kitchen, becoming an eye-catching centerpiece.

To ensure optimal growth, provide bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight may scorch the leaves. Keep the soil evenly moist, allowing the top inch to dry out before watering again. Maintain moderate humidity levels by using a humidifier, mister, or placing the plant on a pebble tray. Anthuriums thrive in temperatures between 65 to 85 degrees and should be protected from drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Feed your Anthurium with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 6-8 weeks during spring and summer. Remove faded blooms and any yellowing or damaged leaves to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's appearance.

Whether you're a beginner or a live houseplant expert, the Anthurium is a beloved and low-maintenance aroid plant that can truly elevate your home. Grow this live potted plant in your space or give it as a fun plant gift to plant lovers. With its heart-shaped leaves and magnificent color, the Anthurium is the perfect live tropical plant to brighten any indoor environment.
