My name is Anthurium. I am a beautiful flower. I am red in colour. I like to stay in the shade. I have many sisters and brothers. They come in many colours such as pink and white. I have only one petal and many seeds. I am very hard.
I am useful for many functions. I make the environment beautiful. People like me because I am very attractive. I live for a long time. I don’t fade quickly.
People grow me in their home gardens. They sell me and export me. I bring a good income for them. I am very valuable, and I am very proud about it. I think I will be useful for everybody.
