Anthuriums, known for their glossy, heart-shaped leaves and vibrant, waxy blooms, are striking tropical plants that make a bold statement in any space. 

LIGHT:
Anthuriums thrive in bright, indirect light, which mimics the dappled sunlight of their natural tropical habitat. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch their leaves, but ensure they get enough light to encourage vibrant blooms and healthy growth.

WATER:
Anthuriums prefer consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. Water them when the top inch of soil feels dry, typically about once a week, and ensure the pot has proper drainage to prevent root rot.
