Anthurium can also be called "Flamigo Flower" or "Boy Flower". It is a large neotropical genus of about 600- 800 (possibly 1,000) species, belonging to the arum family (Araceae). It is the largest and probably the most complex genus of this family. Many species are undoubtedly not described yet and new ones are being found every year. The stems are short to elongate with a length between 15 and 30 cm. The simple leaves come in many shapes. Most leaves are to be found at the end of the stem. They can be spatulate, rounded, or obtuse at the apex. They may be erect or spreading in a rosette, with a length up to 40 cm. Anthurium grows in many forms, mostly evergreen, bushy or climbing epiphytes with relatively few roots. I like this particular Anthurium as it's stem and leave is green in colour. Rather unusual than the commonly found red ones. I shall also put this up for this week's Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge - "A Touch Of Green". For more entries please click here.
