Anthurium Andraeanum Zizou – Burgundy

Plant description

Anthurium andraeanum “Zizou” is a compact, flowering indoor plant with glossy, deep green leaves and long-lasting pink-to-burgundy spathes with an upright spadix. This set is delivered ready to place in a ribbed ceramic pot with a shiny glaze and a clean, architectural profile. Total height is approximately 40 cm; the pot measures Ø 16 cm.

The anthurium’s flowers sit clearly above the foliage, keeping the silhouette tidy even as it continues to bloom. Compared with many flowering houseplants that drop quickly, anthurium is chosen for colour that holds for weeks and a growth habit that stays composed with a simple, consistent routine.

The ceramic pot has fine vertical ribs and a softly rounded form that feels stable on shelves, sideboards, and tables. The glossy surface reflects light subtly, while the ribbing adds texture without appearing busy—well suited to calm, Scandinavian interiors where materials and proportion do the work.

Plant care

• Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. Tolerates medium light, but flowering is stronger near a bright window. Avoid direct midday sun.
• Watering routine: Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep lightly moist, never waterlogged. Always remove excess water from a saucer or outer pot.
• Humidity preferences: Moderate to higher humidity (around 50–70%). In dry homes, group plants together, use a pebble tray, or mist the air around the plant (not the flowers) occasionally.
• Temperature range: 18–26°C is ideal. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C.

Growth and characteristics

• Plant species: Anthurium andraeanum “Zizou”
• Mature height: Typically 35–60 cm indoors, depending on light and care
• Leaf / flower type: Glossy, heart-shaped leaves; waxy spathes with an upright spadix
• Growth speed: Moderate; steady new leaves and blooms in bright, stable conditions

Placement in the home

Place your anthurium where it receives consistent daylight without harsh sun: a living room sideboard, a hallway console with natural light, or a bright home office. With a Ø 16 cm pot footprint and an overall height around 40 cm, it fits comfortably on smaller surfaces while still reading as a complete arrangement. Keep it away from radiators and cold windows in winter for more reliable flowering.

Care tips

Wipe leaves with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and support photosynthesis—especially helpful for glossy foliage. Turn the pot a quarter turn every week or two to keep growth even. If blooming slows, move the plant slightly closer to the light source and keep watering regular rather than increasing volume. Anthuriums respond best to steady conditions and gentle adjustments.
