Question
Hello..
My Mother died recently and she got this beautiful plant. I would like to keep it in her memory. I need to know what it is and how to care for it. I will email pictures to you.

Thanks, Kathy

Hi Kathy,

Sorry about your Mom.

Your plant is a beautiful Anthurium. It does best on a north or east windowsill where it gets bright indirect light.

Don't repot it. Water it very thoroughly once per week. Fertilize it once per month at half strength. Cut off the flower stems after the flowers fade.

That's about it.

Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any additional questions.
