Anthuriums are striking tropical plants known for their glossy, heart-shaped leaves and vibrant, long-lasting flowers, which are actually modified leaves called spathes. Their unique appearance and bold colours make them a favourite for brightening up indoor spaces.
Anthuriums are popular for Chinese New Year as their bright red or pink spathes symbolise prosperity, happiness, and good fortune. Their heart-shaped foliage also represents love and harmony, making them a perfect gift to usher in positive energy for the new year.
