Hi, just found this site and you all seem to have a ton of knowledge! I'm wondering if you can help me out?
I've been looking to purchase a white anthurium plant since last October, but I cannot seem to find any. I live in Arizona, but I've looked all over the internet, too, and while I can find red ones for sale, I can't seem to find white ones!
Do you guys know of a good place I can look for a white anthurium plant? Thanks!

The Anthurium "Maunakea White" was the first one listed in a google search ,, Try goggling it .., sometimes it's all in the wording,, there is maunakea white and White Gemini,, both were listed. Since it's a sub tropical plant it may be hard to find in your local nursery. However I imagine if you call a very reputable nursery in your area they may be able to point you in the right direction, :wink:

"White Lady" is another cultivar produced by the University of Haiwaii and has only been available since 2000. There are many on-line sources available for purchasing these lovely plants but be aware that these are most often sold as artificial or cut flowers so read the descriptions carefully! Anthuriums have always been one of my favorite flowers since I was young and I can help out with care tips when you get yours, if you need any suggestions. Welcome to the forum! Merme

I had visited those sites (the Aloha one has some problem with their page - I get "Internal Sever Errors" and they don't respond to my emails), but most of the time I can't find actual plants, only cut flowers or artificial plants (like Merme mentioned). I've talked with about 15 nurseries in my area, but no luck yet! "White Lady" is another cultivar produced by the University of Haiwaii and has only been available since 2000.

Most of the White Anthuriums I've found on the internet are cut flowers or artificial, like you said! If I manage to find a plant, I'll let you guys know. :)
