Long-Lasting Blooms

The Pink Anthurium is also known as the pink flamingo or tailflower plant and for good reason, as its pink waxy blooms can last for weeks on end. Producing large, green and glossy heart-shaped leaves, this exotic-looking house plant is easy to care for and widely grown. Originating from the rainforests of South America, it is no wonder this plant thrives in humid conditions.

Best Locations For Growing Pink Anthurium

Thriving in high humidity, Pink Anthurium is best grown in a kitchen or bathroom, although it will grow elsewhere as long as it is misted regularly.

Pink Anthurium Sunlight Requirements

Pink Anthurium grows best in bright, but indirect sunlight. Harsh direct light can burn the leaves and stunt blooming.

Pink Anthurium Care

Preferring high humidity levels, the Pink Anthurium will benefit from regular misting and placement on a tray of wet pebbles. Being a tropical plant, it prefers a temperature between 65 to 85 °F and dislikes cold, drafty spots. Old leaves and faded blooms are best removed using a clean and sharp pair of scissors, cutting at the base of the stem. If the leaves gather dust over time, wipe them with a damp cloth to restore their glossy finish.

Watering Pink Anthurium

Pink Anthurium requires moist soil to thrive and will require watering around once to twice per week, depending on the conditions. Do not allow the soil to completely dry out in between waterings; instead, water when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch.

Feeding Pink Anthurium

Feed monthly during the growing season using a diluted fertilizer high in phosphorus, such as tomato feed, to encourage flowering.

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
