Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


Thick, wavy leaves rise from the central base of Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’, building a broad bird’s-nest rosette over time. Red-toned veins or flushing add warm colour detail across the firm green foliage.

The plant gains width as the rosette expands, with foliage spreading outward from the base. A stable pot helps balance the leaf mass as mature leaves gain size and weight.



Foliage traits on Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Growth form: Self-heading bird’s-nest habit with leaves arranged from a central base.
  • Leaf texture: Thick, firm foliage with a leathery feel.
  • Leaf edge: Wavy to undulating margins that become more noticeable as leaves size up.
  • Colour detail: Red veins or red flushing can show under suitable filtered light.
  • Leaf emergence: New leaves rise from the central crown before spreading outward.
  • Pot behaviour: Mature plants benefit from a stable pot that balances the broad rosette.


Rosette growth and indoor space


The foliage of Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’ expands outward from the centre, so the plant needs more horizontal space as it grows. Leaves can become broad and weighty, and the pot should remain stable when the rosette leans toward the light.

Brighter filtered light can bring out stronger red tones, but the leaves should be protected from hot direct sun. A warm, sheltered indoor position with room around the rosette keeps the leaf edges from rubbing and reduces trapped moisture between crowded leaves.



Care for Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Light: Keep it in bright filtered light. Direct sun through glass can scorch the thick leaves, especially during hot hours.
  • Water: Water thoroughly, then allow the upper layer of the mix to dry before the next watering.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity keeps leaf edges cleaner, especially while new leaves are opening from the centre.
  • Temperature: Warm, steady indoor temperatures suit the rosette best. Avoid cold drafts around the base.
  • Substrate: Use a chunky, breathable Anthurium mix so the central root mass does not stay waterlogged.
  • Pot stability: When the plant becomes wide, use a pot heavy enough to hold the rosette upright.
  • Outdoor summer care: In warm weather it can sit in a sheltered bright spot outside once acclimated, but it should come back indoors before nights turn cool.


Common issues with Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


  • Brown margins: Usually linked to dry air, inconsistent watering, direct sun or a root ball that has dried too far.
  • Curled leaves: Check for a dry root ball, compacted mix or heat stress near glass.
  • Reduced red colour: Lower light can soften the red flushing, while excessive sun can damage the leaf surface.
  • Root stress: Heavy wet substrate around the central base can lead to yellowing and soft roots.
  • Older leaf pests: Inspect the undersides and leaf bases for scale, mites or mealybugs.


Safety for Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’


Anthurium ‘Big Red Bird’ should be kept away from pets and small children. Chewed leaves or stems can release calcium oxalate crystals that irritate the mouth and digestive tract.



Name etymology and background


The genus name Anthurium comes from Greek roots meaning flower and tail, referring to the spadix. The cultivated name ‘Big Red Bird’ refers to the broad bird’s-nest rosette, red-toned foliage detail and thick wavy leaves spreading from a central base.

Good buy overall
Giving this review to help fellow buyers like me. It's a good addition to our small walk-in shower/bathroom, perfect size for the 24-inch space and there's a little bit more room on the side. Putting it together was fairly easy. I'm only giving it 4 stars because I wish there's more than just 2 screws to put on the wall though as I don't feel that it's really secure. I'm afraid that it could fall on someone's head. The other thing is because the doors of this cabinet is not even and there's no way to fix it. I like the rod section of it because that's where we hang our clothes when showering. It has the Ikea quality, if you know what I mean. Overall it's a good buy.

Great
Love this cabinet. Sturdy construction and easy to put together if you can read instructions. Parts are labeled and some parts come with additional pieces. The spacing inside the cabinet for mounting to the wall does have enough space to place both screws into studs. However I did drill an additional hole in order to have my cabinet centered and on two studs for long term sturdiness. Overall worth more than the money I paid and looks great in the newly repainted bathroom.

Totally amazed !!!
I wasn’t sure just how “well made” it would be, but needed a bathroom cabinet…. I was completely amazed at the quality of this product. From how well it was packaged for shipping, to the fact that they included an extra piece with all the hardware. The instructions were very easy to follow, each piece was in nice condition, and they fit without any issues. I was surprised they even have plastic chins for the back panel so it doesn’t rattle. The door “hinges” were simple, yet very effective and easy to install. Just push in predrilled hole, push spring style button down and line up to predrilled hole… clicks right in. The pics and part numbers in instruction booklet were easy to follow, hardware packets were labeled correctly, leaving no questions of “what goes where”. I would recommend this product to anyone who wants quality without over spending bc of a “name brand”. A great addition of beauty to our bathroom !!!!

Perfect for a small space.
I needed storage in my small bathroom. This does double duty as it has a towel bar, too! It was easy to put together. I’m glad I read reviews first. We didn’t put the doors on until after we mounted it on the wall. We also drilled our own mounting holes to attach it to studs rather than using the dry wall anchors.
