Flamingo flower (Anthurium andreanum 'White Heart') is native to the wet tropical mountain forests of Central and South America and therefore thrives in greenhouses or conservatories where the temperature doesn't drop below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This spectacular plant has glossy, heart-shaped, dark green leaves up to 1 foot long and stems that may grow to a height of 15 to 20 inches. It is one of the few plants that can move its leaves toward or away from the sun. Its white blossoms are distinguished by a straight flower spike. The heart-shaped flower is really a spathe (waxy, modified leaf), flaring out from the base of a fleshy spike (spadix), where the real, tiny,unisexual flowers grow. They appear as a roughness on the spadix.

Flamingo flower is an epiphytic plant, often growing on other plants and hanging from trees, but it is independent and not parasitic. Popular foliage plants, anthuriums are grown for their attractive, long-lasting, flowering bracts and are widely used by the cut-flower trade. Discovered in 1876 in Columbia, the name Anthurium means "tail flower." All parts of this stunning plant are poisonous, so admire it from afar, and keep it away from pets. If ingested, it may cause mild stomach disorders, and the plant's sap can cause skin irritation.
