    Very pretty pink! I tried an Anthurium a few years ago as a houseplant, but it didn't like me. It basically just went downhill slowly. Yours is very pretty.

    You've got the best spot for them...they do love shade. Haven't got this variety although I have the other colours.

    Beautiful! I love Anthuriums. There flowers last longer in a vase for 2 weeks. :) Been busy for Easter. Sorry for my late visit but my post is not late :) Hope you can visit my Fertilizer Friday here.
