Anthurium – Red, Ceramic Pot, White
Plant description
Anthurium “Roja” (Anthurium andraeanum) is a live indoor flowering plant with glossy, deep green foliage and upright red spathes carried on long, slender stems. Delivered in a white glazed ceramic pot with a fine vertical rib texture, it offers a clean, architectural look that sits comfortably in Scandinavian interiors. With an overall height of approx. 40 cm and a pot diameter of Ø 16 cm, it is sized for a sideboard, dining table, desk, or shelf—adding colour while keeping the silhouette calm and tidy.
The Anthurium’s blooms are known for their durability; each red spathe typically holds its shape well compared with many other flowering houseplants. New leaves and flower stems emerge from the centre, so the plant keeps a balanced form as it grows. The pot’s glossy surface is practical for everyday living: it wipes clean easily and reflects light softly, while the ribbed structure adds detail without feeling decorative.
If you are searching for a red flowering houseplant that stays neat and structured, Anthurium “Roja” is a reliable choice. It suits homes where you want long-lasting blooms, a compact footprint, and a plant that looks considered even between flowering cycles.
Plant care
- Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. Tolerates medium light, but flowers best with good daylight. Avoid strong midday sun.
- Watering routine: Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry. Keep lightly moist, never waterlogged. Empty excess water from any saucer or outer pot.
- Humidity preferences: Moderate to higher humidity. In dry rooms, mist occasionally or place near other plants to support steadier humidity.
- Temperature range: 18–26°C is ideal. Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below approx. 15°C.

Placement in the home
Place the Anthurium where it receives steady natural light without harsh sun—such as a living room side table near a window, a dining table centrepiece, or a hallway console with daylight. The white ribbed ceramic pot pairs well with pale woods, stone surfaces, stainless steel kitchens, and tonal textiles. In bedrooms and home offices, it works well on a dresser or shelf with morning or late-afternoon light. Keep it away from radiators and cold window drafts to avoid stress on leaves and flowers.
Care tips
Turn the pot every week or two for even growth and an upright shape. Wipe the leaves with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and support healthy photosynthesis. Remove spent flower stems at the base once blooms fade, and feed lightly during spring and summer with a balanced houseplant fertiliser around once a month.
