Advice
For a stunning display, group your Pink Anthurium with other shade-loving plants for a lush, tropical ambiance. High humidity helps the plant flourish, so consider placing it in your bathroom or using a humidifier nearby. Remember, a gentle wipe of the leaves with a damp cloth can keep your plant dust-free and sparkling!
Fun facts
Did you know that the name 'Anthurium' is derived from the Greek words 'anthos' and 'oura', meaning 'flower' and 'tail'? This charming plant has a playful nickname—'Flamingo Flower'—due to its brightly colored, flamingo-like blooms. While primarily an indoor plant, Anthuriums naturally grow in the rainforests of South America. Their colorful spathes are actually modified leaves, not petals, and can last up to eight weeks, making them long-lasting companions for your home.
Signs of weakness
Is your anthurium looking sad? Drooping leaves may indicate underwatering, while yellowing could mean too much sunlight or water. Wilting can also be a sign of low humidity. Bring your plant back to life by adjusting its care routine—more water, a little shade, or a humid environment might do the trick!
