Anthurium White Heart
R99.00
Anthurium andreanum White Heart ( Flamingo flower) is spectacular plant has glossy, heart-shaped, dark green leaves up to 1 foot long and stems that may grow to a height of 15 to 20 inches. It is one of the few plants that can move its leaves toward or away from the sun. Its white blossoms are distinguished by a straight flower spike. The heart-shaped flower is really a spathe (waxy, modified leaf), flaring out from the base of a fleshy spike (spadix), where the real, tiny, unisexual flowers grow. They appear as a roughness on the spadix.
Flamingo flower is an epiphytic plant, often growing on other plants and hanging from trees, but it is independent and not parasitic. Popular foliage plants, anthuriums are grown for their attractive, long-lasting, flowering bracts and are widely used by the cut-flower trade.

How to care
Light: Partial shade, somewhere warm.This Anthuruim requires 70-85% of sunlight. Depending on your location, filtered sun is best. Plant should be brought indoors during the winter seasons to protect it.
Water This plant more during Spring, Summer & Autumn but back it off during Winter. Water thoroughly when the first inch of the soil becomes dry to the touch, stopping when water starts draining from the drainage holes. Avoid overwatering (Anthurium roots are susceptible to rot!). The more light and warmth that your Anthurium gets, the more water it will need, so check the soil for dryness every few days. These plants will provide signs of stress or thirst, so pay attention: thirsty plants will be light if you lift them and will have droopy or puckering leaves. You will not need to water as often in the winter when the plant is not actively growing.
