The Laceleaf Antherium is commonly called the Flamingo Flower, Tail Flower, or Painted Tongue Plant for their gorgeous heart-shaped foliage and flowers that are a major draw. The Antherium is typically a slow to moderate grower, however under the right conditions they will grow faster and bloom brighter. They are well worth a little extra effort for their planterior beauty.
Plant Detail
The beautiful heart-shaped “flowers” of the Antherium are not actually flowers. They are red, white, pink, or purple waxy leaves called spathes that spread from the base of the fleshy spike where the actual tiny flowers grow. The Antherium is an extremely durable houseplant and requires a moderate level of care.
