anthuriumsAnthuriums
Add a Touch of the Tropics
to Your Home

 You don’t have to live in South America to enjoy the
beauty of Anthuriums!

These exotic-looking tropical plants are readily available for anyone to enjoy indoors. With brightly colored flower spathes and pretty ornamental leaves, you’ll love the touch of the tropics- even in your northern home!

Anthuriums need a high light, but not direct sunlight, so place your plant within two feet of an east or west facing window with the curtains or drapes kept open. Water your anthurium thoroughly, but don’t over water, and allow it to dry slightly between watering. No fertilizing is needed for the first three months. Thereafter, fertilize your anthuriums about every other month with a slow- release water soluble fertilizer. And be sure to remove dead and unsightly foliage and faded or brown flowers to keep your anthurium looking tropical hot!

Our Mission: "Big Blend Magazine is a company based on the belief that education is the most formidable weapon that can be waged against fear, ignorance and prejudice. It is our belief that education starts at home and branches outward. Education leads to travel, and travel leads to understanding, tolerance, and appreciation of cultures and customs different to our own, and ultimately to world peace. Our company is further based on the principle that networking, communication, and helping others to promote and market themselves leads to financial stability; thus paving the way to better education, travel, and the spirit of giving back to the community."
