Anthurium andraeanum 'Red' is a highly sought-after, tropical indoor plant celebrated for its glossy, waxy red heart-shaped spathes and prominent yellow spadix. Native to the rainforests of Colombia and Ecuador, it requires a humid environment, well-draining soil, and indirect light to bloom year-round.
Gifting - Anthurium Andraeneum Red
Light: Place in bright, indirect sunlight (e.g., near a sheer curtain or a shaded window). Avoid direct afternoon sun, which will scorch and burn the leaves.
Soil: Requires a loose, highly aerated, and well-draining mix. A blend of coco coir, orchid bark, and a little perlite or sphagnum moss works best to prevent root rot.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but never soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch (generally once or twice a week depending on the season).
Humidity: They love high humidity (>50%). You can mist the leaves occasionally or place the pot on a pebble tray with water.
