Anthurium

Though they can easily be grown outdoors in tropical climates, they are more often kept as houseplants or in greenhouses due to their specific care needs.

Anthurium can bloom repeatedly for long periods; varieties are distinctive with heart-shaped waxy spathes (i.e., modified leaf around the flower) and red or yellow spikes. Growth rate is slow or moderate and dependent on ample light but susceptible to sunburn.
