To get the most out of this type of display, you need to use a glass vase to monitor the tangle of roots in the water. Wash the roots off before adding to fresh water. The water has limited nutrients, so you need to feed it with a liquid fertiliser to stop it from getting slimy and monitor the plant as it grows in the water.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Many placement options<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Anthuriums are highly versatile when it comes to placement. The variety of pots you can choose for these plants means that you can easily match your <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">d\u00e9cor<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> just by using the right covers. They can <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">be placed<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> in living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms, or even shaded balconies. When placed in the living room, they serve as a stunning focal point.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Air purifying benefits<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Beyond their beauty, these houseplants contribute to a healthier indoor environment by acting as natural air purifiers. They effectively filter out common indoor pollutants like ammonia and xylene, helping improve air quality in your house.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-51208\" class=\"wp-image-51208 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-scaled.jpeg\" alt=\"pexels-cottonbro-4505146\" width=\"1707\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-scaled.jpeg 1707w, https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/pexels-cottonbro-4505146-1365x2048.jpeg 1365w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1707px) 100vw, 1707px\" \/>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image Credit: Pexels<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Whether <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">you\u2019re<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> looking to add a touch of tropical elegance to your home or seeking a new plant addition <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">that\u2019s<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> both beautiful and functional, anthuriums are an excellent choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/gardening\/effective-ways-eliminate-ants-indoor-houseplants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ALSO SEE: EFFECTIVE WAYS TO ELIMINATE ANTS IN INDOOR HOUSEPLANTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"edjMSvlTdp\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/gardening\/effective-ways-eliminate-ants-indoor-houseplants\/\">Effective ways to eliminate ants in indoor houseplants<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Feature Image: Pexels<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/gardening\/discover-versatility-anthuriums-perfect-space\/\">Discover the versatility of anthuriums: Perfect for any space<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gardenandhome.co.za\/\">SA Garden and Home<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With their glossy heart-shaped leaves and their colourful spathes, anthurium houseplants are such a vibrant and exotic addition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":347,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-1"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=346"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/346\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/347"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=346"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=346"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tapyom.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=346"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
