  Title:  Anthurium andraeanum
  Specie:  Anthurium andraeanum
  
  Description:  This specie has glossy leaves which encompass lustrous, vivid flowers that are sometimes mistaken for plastic. The flowers are arranged in inflorescences and contain two parts: the spathe and the spadix. The spathe is simply a large, leaf-like bract, sometimes brightly colored to attract pollinators.  The spathe surrounds and protects the spadix, which is a small spike with small flowers crowded onto a thickened axis.
