Anthurium — 117 species

Anthuriums are a striking genus of tropical aroids grown for their glossy spathes or spectacular velvety foliage — species such as Anthurium clarinervium, Crystal Anthurium, and King Anthurium are collector favourites. They prefer bright, indirect light and consistently warm conditions. Water when the top half of the soil dries out, and provide high humidity for best results. All Anthurium species are toxic to cats and dogs; they contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals throughout the plant, which cause oral irritation, drooling, and gastrointestinal distress on ingestion.
