When it comes to growing flowers at home, poor lighting is a common issue. Many beautiful flowers, such as roses, jasmine, and clematis, require good lighting conditions. If the indoor lighting is poor, it's hard to grow them, and even if they manage to bloom, the quality of the flowers isn't good. However, there are always exceptions, and there are some shade-loving varieties in the flower world. Today, I will introduce four types of "shade-loving flowers" that can bloom beautifully even in poor lighting conditions at home.
1. Red Anthurium
Also known as Red Flamingo Flower, Fire鹤 Flower, Anthurium, and Flower Candle, the red anthurium is a herbaceous plant belonging to the Araceae family. It has a good tolerance for shade and can grow and bloom normally even when placed in a place with scattered light. Its leaves are ovate and evergreen, with bright red spathe flowers topping the branches, and a cluster of yellow flesh spikes at the heart of the flower, resembling a flickering candle at night, which is particularly bright and beautiful.
Key Points for Winter Care
The red anthurium prefers a warm and humid semi-shaded environment, with the most suitable growth temperature between 20 to 30 degrees. The minimum temperature should not be lower than 14 degrees, and it is important to protect against the cold in winter. The red anthurium does not like dryness, nor can it tolerate strong sunlight, and it prefers loose, fertile, well-draining slightly acidic sandy soil.
Flamingo Flower

Also known as the Bromeliad, the Flamingo Flower is peculiar and beautiful in its bloom, with bright red spike-like inflorescences standing proudly on top of lush, slender leaves, bringing a festive look. This flower symbolizes good luck and auspiciousness, making it not only suitable for home planting but also often given as a gift plant during New Year's, weddings, grand openings, and other festive occasions.
The Flamingo Flower is native to tropical rainforests, growing under the leaves of large plants, which has given it a tolerance for shade. It can grow well in a place with scattered light and ventilation without the need for strong sunlight.
Key Points for Winter Care
The Flamingo Flower prefers a warm and humid environment, with the most suitable growth temperature between 18 to 28 degrees. The minimum winter temperature should not be lower than 10 degrees. The Flamingo Flower enjoys loose, fertile, well-draining sandy soil and should be fertilized with a thin solution rather than a concentrated one.
