Anthurium
Anthurium ranges from velvet-leaved climbers and broad upright foliage plants to rosette forms, pendant strap-leaved species and flowering cultivars with colourful spathes. Strong veins, rich textures and varied proportions create compact plants as well as imposing specimens with broad or elongated leaves.

About Our Filters
Filters help you narrow things down fast and without guessing. We put a lot of time and effort into keeping filter values consistent across the shop by cross-checking references and validating them against real-world indoor growing and handling.
Use them as guidance, not guarantees. Homes vary a lot, so for the full context (and any exceptions), open the product page and read the description.
How filtering works
- Filters stack: each selection narrows results.
- Multiple picks in one filter are usually either/or within that filter.
- Undo anytime: click a selected option again (or clear filters).
Safety
- Non-toxic: not known for relevant chemical toxicity for common pets (chewing can still cause irritation).
- Non-toxic & Pet Friendly: stricter shortlist that also avoids many physical hazards like spines, sharp tips, thorns, and bristles.
Common care filters
- Light level: Low indirect → Full sun/direct.
- Water Needs: Low / Medium / High.
- Humidity Level: Normal (40–50%) / Moist (50–60%) / Humid (60–80%+).
Growth & size
- Growth Habit: climbing, trailing, crawling, upright, self-heading, clumping, rosette.
- Needs support? none / optional / needed.
- Delivered size: pot size + plant height at shipping.
- Max size indoors: realistic long-term height + spread indoors.
Looks & botanical browsing
- Leaf Shape & Size + Foliage Colour: quick visual categories.
- Plant Type / Genus / Family: browse by broad group or taxonomy.

Anthurium flowers, foliage and climbing forms
- Flowering plants: visible spathes and buds mark the supplied stage.
- Foliage plants: leaf span and stalk height shape the current footprint.
- Climbers: stem length and support status affect vertical space.
Anthurium is an accepted genus in Araceae native from Mexico through tropical America. It includes epiphytic, terrestrial and climbing forms, which helps explain the wide range of leaf shapes and growth habits seen in indoor cultivation.
Anthurium growth forms worth comparing
Anthurium includes compact rosettes, broad bird’s-nest types and climbing species with elongated stems. Leaves may be velvety, glossy, deeply veined, corrugated or strap-shaped. Growth form, mature leaf size, texture and support needs offer the clearest way to compare plants across this diverse genus.
Rosette and climbing growth
Rosette Anthuriums build a central crown and gradually widen around the pot. Climbing species extend along a stem and benefit from support as they mature. Velvet-leaved forms need gentle handling because their surfaces mark easily, while bird’s-nest types develop a heavier crown and broad foliage.
Compare leaf length, stem habit and the species’ eventual spread when planning space. A compact rosette creates a dense low outline. A climbing species gains height and may produce larger leaves along a support. More than one stem or crown can produce a broader, layered plant.
Leaf development and root-zone structure
New leaves often emerge in bronze, copper or pale green and deepen as they harden. Velvet surfaces gain their final texture over several weeks, while glossy forms become firmer and more reflective. A healthy growth point shows active development.
An open, moisture-balanced aroid substrate supports air around the roots while retaining steady moisture. Bark, mineral particles and moisture-retentive fibres can be adjusted to the species, pot and watering routine. Seasonal growth often produces one leaf at a time, and this gradual unfurling rhythm is part of Anthurium care. The humidity guide explains how moisture in the air interacts with ventilation.
Anthurium leaves, flowers and cut stems contain calcium oxalate crystals that can irritate the mouth if chewed. A raised or protected position reduces access for children and pets.

Frequently Asked Questions About Anthurium
Are Anthuriums grown for flowers or foliage?
Both. Some Anthurium are grown mainly for long-lasting coloured spathes and repeat flowering, while others are kept for leaf shape, texture, venation, or size. That is why an Anthurium collection can include plants that look and behave quite differently indoors.
What light do Anthuriums need indoors?
Bright indirect light is the best fit for most indoor Anthurium. Too little light can reduce flowering and weaken growth, while strong direct sun can scorch leaves, especially on softer or thinner foliage types.
Do Anthuriums need high humidity?
Many do best with warm air and decent humidity, especially foliage Anthurium with velvety or thinner leaves. Flowering hybrids are often a bit more forgiving, but cold, dry air and constant draughts still show up fast as poorer growth and rougher leaves.
How should I water an Anthurium?
Most indoor Anthurium do best in an airy, fast-draining mix watered when roughly the top 15–25% has dried. Flowering hybrids often tolerate slightly steadier moisture than some collector foliage types, but none want a pot that stays dense, cold, and wet for long.
Are Anthuriums safe around pets?
No. Anthurium are toxic to cats and dogs because they contain insoluble calcium oxalates. Keep them out of reach of pets that chew foliage or flowers.

Die Pflanzen waren prima verpackt und ein heatpack war im Paket enthalten. Die Lieferzeit hat 2 bis 3 Tagen gedauert, was aus meiner Sicht wirklich gut ist. Alle drei Pflanzen haben die Lieferung gut überstanden. Ich habe mich auf Hoyas spezialisiert und habe schon die nächsten Pflanzen meiner Wunschliste auf der Website gefunden. Daher wird die nächste Bestellung nicht lange auf sich warten lassen.

The plants are carefully packaged and arrive in great conditions (I’m based in Spain) and they’re always there to help in any way they can with your purchase.I have and will always recommend Foliage Factory to every friend I can. I’m not only satisfied with their plants and prices, but their customer service is exceptional.

Very healthy and well packed plant. Unfortunately there was one plant that ordered couldn’t be delivered as it was out of stock hence 1 star less.

Die Sendung kam leider in keinem guten Zustand bei mir an, kann passieren. Habe mich darauf hin sofort an Foliage Factory gewandt und habe selten einen so guten, schnellen, freundlichen und kulanten Kundendienst erlebt.

Everything arrived in good condition and very well packed - it wasn't easy with a fragile plant and a heavy bag of substrate. I recommend it!

Bester online-Pflanzenhandel den ich kenne (habe davor 4 andere ausprobiert). Eine teure Pflanze wurde beim Transport beschädigt und mir ersetzt. Der Kontakt dabei war auch sehr nett (danke Jan) und hat mir gut geholfen. Die anderen Pflanzen sind in einem sehr guten Zustand, keine Schädlinge, super Bewurzelung. Nur zu empfehlen! :)

The plants have arrived in perfect condition, the roots and the foliage so so healthy! I had problem with 1 plant out of 16 and they have responded to my email almost instantly and the issue was resolved straight away. I'm really impressed and satisfied, definitely getting more plants from them again!

I received perfectly heathy and absolutely beautiful plants, even bigger than expected. The delivery within Europe was really fast. I think Foliage Factory has one of the best plant web shops in the internet. It‘s just great to get so much informations about the plants. I will definitely order again :)
