Yes, I did google it also, it is arrowhead. From the first look I thought it's anthurium, thank you for sharing your plants, so wonderful and inspiring.

@Mak33 and @Rosemaryx -- ladies, your indoor gardens are amazing and tres inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing. :love:

Gasp... Anthuriums -- I'm pretty sure they were created to be the bane of my houseplant-ambitious existence.

I fell in love with the anthurium's bright red blooms a few years ago and I've tried everything -- growing them indoors and outdoors, moving them around from light to dark, reading up on them and putting together some cray cray 3-ingredient soil mix recipe that they supposedly like, misting them lightly every morning, turning on a humidifier, and, le sigh. I was so excited to see a new finally start to form, only to see it stall in place and wither away, right along with my former plant-filled, domesticated dreams. :cry:

Anthuriums and I are just not to be, and I now try my best to resist their glossy, ruby-blossomed siren call every time I walk past them in the gardening department.

If you ever figure out how to make them thrive, please, pass along your wisdom! :cool:

I feel your pain sister , I truly do...
I have a little one , my daughter bought it for me about 5 yrs ago , it was dying after I had done all the same things as you had done , but guess what , I removed it from the dirt , and placed it in my Orchid bark , yes I use bark instead of dirt , and soak it once a week...It has never given me flowers but it is alive , and new little leaves continue to grow , maybe it is a miniature? , I would love to post more of my plants on here , but it says file is to big , so I have to post them on Facebook first and copy the image to here , not sure how to get around that one...

Hi @seoulsearch sorry to hear about your anthuriums, it is a real beauty, I sure hope that mine would be as forgiving and hopefully loving as I tend her. I just purchased it a week ago and it seems doing okay although there's wilting on one of the leaf when I got it, so far it's been doing well, I saw a little baby coming up as well, I water it twice a week, put it in a shaded window but lots of light coming in, not in a direct sunlight. Might be the temperature, I'm in South East Asia Philippines now I'm in a 32 deg celsius with a 69% humidity, it is placed inside my bedroom window. I am hoping this won't die. 😍 will update this. But I know anthurium likes a bit of cold temp with lots of light. Will see how.

@Rosemaryx you can crop the pics if it is too large, i don't know, but that's how i post them, would be glad to see more of your plants, btw I love your plants and the hanging ones too.
I saw a string of pearls and a string of hearts online and it is so lovely. Check it out.

This I googled online:

Ok...
I am working on the cropping :)...
This is a little succulent plant I am growing from one of the leaves that fell of the Mother plant...
This is how you can grow more succulents ...the babies come from the roots that sprout from the leaf as it dies , and they feed from the leaf by the juice ( water ) that remains in the leaf , it is a fun way of growing them , but it is not always successful...
Once the leaf has shriveled up to nothing , then it gets a little pot and I can continue to grow it...

oh wow, this is gorgeous! Amazing plant, I don't think I've ever seen one before, this is so beautiful! Like a butterfly! I agree to see Gods wonderful creation, such colors and textures, it's is marvelous to wonder on his great and mighty works. Glad what you did with the succulents, I made one myself the other week, I took one of each and created a "platter" out of a styrofoam, I'm doing this experiment if it will thrive from such tiny compartment.
