Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Anthurium Red
The Rare Anthurium Red is a tropical plant belonging to the Araceae family, known for its distinctive heart-shaped red blooms and glossy green leaves. Native to Central and South America, this plant has gained popularity worldwide for its ornamental value and air-purifying properties. The flowers are actually modified leaves called spathes, which surround the spadix where the tiny true flowers are located. At gardengro, we source premium Anthurium varieties to ensure you get a healthy, vibrant plant that will thrive in your home.
Light & Placement
Anthurium Red plants prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate lower light conditions but may produce fewer flowers in such environments. Place your plant near an east or west-facing window where it receives filtered morning or late afternoon sun. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. These plants do well in offices and study rooms with moderate light conditions. At gardengro, we recommend rotating your plant occasionally to ensure even growth and prevent it from leaning toward the light source.
Watering & Humidity
Water your Anthurium Red when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. These plants prefer their soil to be consistently moist but not waterlogged, so ensure proper drainage in the pot. During the growing season (spring and summer), you may need to water more frequently. In winter, reduce watering as the plant's growth slows. Anthuriums appreciate higher humidity levels, so misting the leaves occasionally or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water can help. At gardengro, we recommend using well-draining soil to prevent root rot and maintain healthy plant growth.
Pet Safety & Toxicity
The Anthurium plant is toxic to pets if ingested. It contains calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation to the mouth, tongue, and throat, leading to drooling, difficulty swallowing, and vomiting. If you have pets, it's best to place this plant out of their reach. Consider hanging it or placing it on a high shelf where curious cats or dogs can't access it. While the plant is harmful when eaten, simply having it in your home is safe as long as pets don't chew on the leaves or flowers.
