Unapologetically flamboyant, these futuristic looking houseplants have waxy, heart-shaped leaves and will inject some brightness into any home. Flamingo plants, as they’re commonly known in reference to their dramatic leaves, are said to represent happiness and abundance – the perfect gift! This wonderful plant comes with a perfectly fitting ceramic pot to display it within.

Many people mistake this plant’s colourful leaves for flowers – they are actually known as spathes, which are modified leaves.

With such an extravagant appearance, you may assume this plant is hard to care for, but it’s very low maintenance. It’s native to tropical rainforests in Central and South America, so loves humidity. It dislikes the cold too, so keep out of drafts.
