Anthurium andraeanum (red)

Anthurium andraeanum is a popular, classic houseplant species for good reason. Produces glossy arrowhead leaves and shiny red flowers that resemble a painter's palette. Anthuriums are not only some of the most striking plants, but many (including Anthurium andraeanum) are very easy, resilient plants. Great choice for beginners. 

Note: We do our best to package plants so they arrive healthy and happy. Some leaf crisping may occur due to shipping stress. Please contact within 7 days if plant arrives in poor health or doesn't show signs of recovery.
