Anthurium Flamingo Flower – the reigning monarch of tropical houseplants that’ll bring a taste of the exotic to your humble abode! Straight from the sultry shores of South America and the Caribbean, this mesmerizing plant is famous for its fiery red spathe, which is actually a brilliantly coloured royal red leaf. The delicate flowers nestled on the vivid yellow spike in the middle of the spathe add an otherworldly allure to this botanical beauty.

Dracaena marginata is an attractive, stiff-leaved plant with colorful foliage that sometimes goes by the name dragon tree. Most of the time, though, it’s sold simply as “Dracaena marginata” or just “Dracaena.” These are tough, drought-tolerant plants with aggressive root systems that make excellent houseplants—they are a little more forgiving than some of the other dracaena. It helps that they’re attractive and varied. They are sometimes grown as single-stemmed plants; other times grouped or even braided together in the same pot. NASA lists a dracaena marginata as a clean- air houseplant.
