IN THE PINK... ANTHURIUM
Anthuriums are a fun flower and never fail to provoke a smile.
They look almost unreal!
The flowers are thick, shiny, ribbed and wrinkled, while the leaves are large and glossy, thus very 'reflective', which makes them so much more difficult to photograph well! Yes I do love a challenge!
The flowers are hermaphrodite, containing male and female flowers.
Quite a whimsical flower.
Yet I do love a challenge!
They belong to the Araceae family, which also includes callas and philodendrons.
Their genus name, Anthurium, comes from the Greek words anthos meaning "flower," and oura, meaning "tail."
Anthurium can also be called "Flamingo Flower" or "Boy Flower", both referring to the structure of the spathe and spadix.
