Anthurium Red

Botanical Name: Anthurium andraeanum (Red variety)
Common Name(s): Red Anthurium, Red Flamingo Flower, Red Laceleaf, Painter's Palette

The Anthurium Red is a popular tropical plant known for its striking, glossy flowers and attractive foliage. The Red variety of Anthurium is especially prized for its vibrant red spathes, which contrast beautifully with its dark green, leathery leaves. Native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America, Anthurium plants are epiphytic by nature, often growing in the shade of larger trees where they enjoy indirect light and high humidity.

Indoors, this plant typically grows to 18–24 inches in height and spreads to about 12–18 inches wide. This plant is known for its long-lasting, showy blooms, which are actually spathes (modified leaves) surrounding a central spike called a spadix. The red spathes can last for several weeks and are known to bloom year-round in optimal conditions, especially during warmer months. The blooms are often mistaken for petals but are actually part of the plant’s unique floral structure.

The Anthurium Red thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light levels, this will reduce its blooming frequency and overall health. The plant prefers a slightly acidic, well-draining potting mix and needs to be watered regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. It's important to allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings, especially during the winter months, to prevent root rot. Increasing humidity by misting or placing the plant on a humidity tray can also promote better growth and blooming.

This plant is a low-maintenance option for those who enjoy bold, colorful flowers without requiring extensive care. It's ideal for both beginner and intermediate plant parents due to its easy-to-follow care instructions and long-lasting blooms.

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

  1. Stem Support: If your Anthurium Red 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.

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

Where do you ship?
