Anthurium/heart shaped flower

[funkychips]

Paphioboy, you tried roses before? I was planting roses too, and african violets, until I had to go outstation for work at one time and I just gave the whole lot up as they are quite a handful to maintain. Then I switched to tropical evergreens and everything seemed to pick up well after that.

Anthuriums are nice plants but I prefer the large leaved types like Anthurium crystallinum I have one in my garden they are pretty easy to grow and they have big beautiful patterned leaves.
