Thanks Panther.

I think it's just the variety...some varieties will bloom more than others.
It is very strange, in my experience, Anthuriums bloom more in the Winter than in Summer...this is contrary to what I've always read...which is that they need of low 80 degrees F. and high of 90 F. degrees to flower well.

Amazingly vivid colour.
Odd that your plants bloom better in winter.
Maybe the plant books need rewriting ! LOL

My friend who's a plant guru in Hawaii...said that most of the Anthuriums grow and bloom in the higher elevations better. (where it's cooler)

Yes, Anthurium are epiphytic plants. They grow well on trees in the tropical rain forest.
