About this plant
Wavy, bird's nest-shaped leaves splashed with cream and green. The variegated Anthurium hookeri is a collector's foliage plant. Its wide, rippled leaves grow in a rosette, and every leaf carries its own pattern of cream, white and green, so no two plants look the same. This page covers Anthurium hookeri care for a warm, bright home.
Why you'll like it
This is a statement foliage plant for someone who wants something rare. The rosette form is striking on a table or plant stand, and because the variegation is different on every plant, you get a one-of-a-kind specimen.
What you get
A live variegated Anthurium hookeri in a 4" grower's nursery pot. Each plant is unique, so the pattern may differ from the photos.
. Keep it warm, away from cold drafts, in a chunky, airy mix so the roots never sit wet.Is an anthurium a good indoor plant?
Yes, if it has warmth, bright indirect light and some humidity. Hookeri is a foliage anthurium, so it is grown for its leaves rather than flowers.
Is Anthurium hookeri sensitive to cold?
Yes. Keep it above about 60°F and away from cold windows and drafts.
Will the variegation stay?
Each leaf has its own pattern. New leaves may come in whiter or greener, and bright indirect light helps the plant hold its variegation.
