Anthurium scherzerianum
This anthurium has beautiful, red, heart-shaped "flowers" which are actually morphed leaves called spathes. Anthurium spathes are brightly colored to attract pollinators to the spadix (the flower spikes in the middle). It's fairly low-maintenance, and blooms can last for 2-3 months in the right conditions.
Medium to bright indirect light. Direct light burns her leaves.
SM: ~12" tall and a 4" pot.
MD: ~18" tall and a 6" pot.
Pro-tip: Brighter light equals a brighter bloom. If it stops blooming altogether, it needs to be moved to higher light.

The leaves had water spots when my anthurium came out of the box, but it’s in otherwise perfect condition. It has three more spathes in the process of opening up and one of them has opened in the past couple weeks. 😍
