GENERAL INFORMATION
- Anthurium is a genus of more than 800 species found in the New World tropics from Mexico to northern Argentina and Uruguay.
- The Anthurium is also known as Painted Tongue, Flamingo Flower (Flamingo Lily), or Tail Flower.
- Anthuriums are grown for their brightly colored flower spathes and their ornamental leaves.
- The flower has a spadix called the rat's tail that tapers off from the flower, giving it its characteristic appearance.
SOIL REQUIREMENT

FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT
- Phosphorous is the middle number so it’s best to have that be the highest number when it comes to anthuriums.
- Don’t over-fertilize your anthuriums because salts build-up & can burn the roots of the plant.
LIGHT REQUIREMENT
- They prefer moderate or medium-light & need this exposure to bloom.
- If the light is too strong (like a hot, west exposure close to a window), your plant will burn.
WATER REQUIREMENT
- The more light & warmth, the more often yours will need watering.
- Let it almost completely dry out before watering it again.
