Anthurium Flamingo Flower – Dark Red

Plant description

This arrangement pairs a live Anthurium (often sold as flamingo flower, Anthurium andraeanum) with the Bologna glazed ceramic plant pot in a deep dark red. Delivered as a ready-to-place indoor flowering plant, it offers long-lasting colour through waxy, heart-shaped spathes and upright flower spikes, balanced by dense, glossy green foliage. The pot is Ø16 cm, and the overall height shown is approximately 40 cm including plant and pot.

The Bologna pot has a rounded silhouette with evenly spaced vertical ribs. The glossy glaze reflects light softly and adds texture without looking busy—well suited to calm, Scandinavian interiors where colour is used with restraint. The Anthurium’s compact, full growth habit makes it easy to place on smaller surfaces while still reading as a complete composition.

Plant care

• Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. Tolerates medium light, but avoid strong direct sun, which can scorch leaves and flowers.
• Watering routine: Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist, never waterlogged. Reduce watering slightly in winter.
• Humidity preferences: Moderate to high humidity. Occasional misting or grouping with other plants can help in dry homes.
• Temperature range: Typical indoor temperatures 18–26°C. Avoid drafts and cold windowsills (below 15°C).

Growth and characteristics

• Plant species: Anthurium (commonly Anthurium andraeanum)
• Approx. size at delivery: Around 40 cm overall height (plant with pot); pot diameter Ø16 cm
• Leaf / flower type: Glossy green leaves; durable, waxy coloured spathes with an upright spadix
• Growth speed: Slow to moderate indoors with steady light and warmth

Placement in the home

Place the Anthurium where it receives daylight without harsh midday sun—slightly back from an east- or west-facing window is ideal. This size works well on a living room sideboard, a dining table centre, a hallway console, or a kitchen shelf with bright, indirect light. In an office, it suits a credenza or bookcase near a window, bringing colour while staying compact and tidy.

Care tips

Keep the foliage clean by wiping leaves with a damp cloth; dust reduces light uptake and can dull the natural shine. Rotate the pot every couple of weeks for even growth. If the ceramic Bologna pot is used as a cover pot, keep the Anthurium in its inner nursery pot and empty any excess water after watering to protect the roots. Use a coaster or felt pads under the pot to help protect delicate surfaces from moisture and small scratches.
