How to propagate an anthurium – plant experts reveal how to multiply these colorful houseplants from cuttings and by division

How to propagate an anthurium.

Those who know me well know my houseplant collection is never quite finished. I'm always wanting more greenery in my home and I find the best way to do it affordably is by multiplying the plants I already have. Propagating flowering plants is extra rewarding, as it means you gain more plants with beautiful color for your home.

Even though anthuriums aren't technically flowering plants (their 'flowers' are actually mutated leaves known as spathes), they're a perfect example of a beautiful plant worth multiplying. Growing anthuriums is easy enough, so long as you maintain bright conditions and consistent moisture levels. Propagating them is just as simple, although it can be a bit of a waiting game.
