Plant description
Flamingo flowers are known for their decorative foliage and colourful leaf bracts and large, heart-shaped, dark green leaves. The young leaves of Anthurium clarinervium emerge with a reddish hue before later developing their green colour which display striking, white patterns, making this popular houseplant attractive all year round. It grows in the canopy of trees in its native Mexico so an open compost suitable for orchids is recommended.
