Anthurium Purple

Botanical Name: Anthurium andraeanum (Purple variety)
Common Name(s): Purple Anthurium, Purple Flamingo Flower, Purple Laceleaf

The Anthurium Purple is a striking tropical plant, well-loved for its vibrant, long-lasting flowers and glossy, dark green foliage. This Purple variety of Anthurium is particularly notable for its rich, deep purple spathes, which contrast beautifully with its dark green, heart-shaped leaves. Native to the rainforests of Central and South America, this plant thrives in humid, tropical environments and is often found growing as an epiphyte in the understory, where it enjoys filtered light and moderate moisture.

Indoors, this plant can grow to about 18-24 inches in height, making it a perfect size for a tabletop, countertop, or decorative floor plant. Its striking purple flowers, which are technically spathes (modified leaves) surrounding a central spike (spadix), can last for weeks, and new blooms continue to appear throughout the year, especially in warmer, brighter conditions. The plant thrives best in bright, indirect light, though it can tolerate lower light levels, but blooming may be reduced in such conditions.

Anthuriums prefer a slightly acidic, well-draining potting mix, such as a blend designed for orchids or tropical plants. They like consistently moist soil, but it's important to allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings to avoid root rot. Humidity is key to keeping them happy, so regular misting or placement in a humid area, like a bathroom or kitchen, can promote better growth. In winter, reduce watering to allow the plant to rest.

This plant is relatively easy to care for and makes an excellent addition to both beginner and seasoned plant lovers' collections due to its low-maintenance requirements and showy blooms.

Note: This Anthurium plant is toxic to humans and pets which can cause irritation and discomfort if ingested or touched.

Care Insights & Expert Tips

  1. Stem Support: If your Anthurium Purple has long stems, provide support with a moss pole or stake.

FAQs

Do you have a return or replacement policy for plants?

Due to the perishable nature of plants, we do not accept returns based on personal preference. Shipping live plants back and forth can cause unnecessary stress and jeopardize the health of the plant. We encourage customers to choose carefully before placing an order. Our risk-free, 30-day customer guarantee covers cases where plants arrive damaged, dead, sick, or incorrect items were sent. We will send you a replacement plant or provide a refund.

If there’s an issue with your order, please notify us within 30 days so we can address the issue as quickly as possible. To learn more, visit 30-Day Customer Guarantee. Refunds will be processed to the card or account used for your purchase and will typically be available in your bank in 3-5 business days from the date it was issued.

Can I order and receive plants during the winter?

Yes, we ship plants year-round! Our shipments are carefully packaged to ensure we deliver healthy plants to your door every day of the year. We monitor the weather across the country and will include heat packs at no extra charge to keep your plants warm during shipping.

If I order more than one plant, will they ship separately?

Where do you ship?

Do you offer same-day or next-day delivery?
