Anthurium Orange

The Anthurium Orange 🧡✨ is proof that nature doesn't need to be subtle. Those bold, waxy orange spathes bloom nearly year-round indoors, making this one of the most rewarding flowering houseplants you can own. It loves humidity, thrives in bright indirect light, and once it's happy in its spot, it will absolutely show off for you. Izzy's Plant Tip: The more humidity you give it, the more it blooms 💧 — a pebble tray or humidifier nearby goes a long way.

Fun fact: that bold "flower" is actually a modified leaf called a spathe — the real flowers are the tiny ones along the spadix in the center, nature's most glamorous disguise.
