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.

Excellent product and my dog loves it
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
I love these toys almost as much as my dog! It makes throwing a ball over and over much less straining on my shoulder and also allows me to pick the ball up without getting slobber all over me. Chuck-it products are high quality and they're the only ball I will buy now- it's my dog's favorite!

Solid, Quality Construction at a Value
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
It's amazing how much fun my new puppy and I have been having with a single, vacuum-molded piece of plastic. I have a 4mo named Walter and getting a Chuckit® was always in the cards. 1: I didn't know how cheap they were, and 2: I didn't realize how much fun it makes fetch. Really small things like being able to pick up the ball with the Chuckit® without having to bend down was so surprising and makes fetch last longer for both of us. Another tip is that I had watched videos where they say the throwing technique is sort of a punch, or whip action; where you sort of wind-up, throw, and then jerk your hand back (like cracking a whip). I started doing that and it was fine, and working without problems. But then I thought, "I'm just going to launch this with one continuous movement". And WOW what a difference. If you have the space (a big field, basically), you don't need to modify your throw to a punch or whip type movement. Just launch it like you're casting a fishing pole, and end your motion with the Chuckit® pointing directly at where you're trying to throw it. The ball naturally flies out at about a 45 degree angle. High and far. You don't need to overthink it. Additionally, if I'm in my backyard (fenced with neighbors all around) and I can't go high and far, I just side-arm it. And the ball releases on it's own. No need to whip. Looking forward to my Pup growing up so we can play longer. Love this thing. Oh one more tip from my brother– he says a lacrosse ball fits perfectly in these things too if you have a dog that wants to destroy your tennis balls. Lacrosse balls are practically indestructible. Just make sure not to launch it on any surface that will bounce, or you'll never see it again. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat. For the price, stop thinking about it, buy it, and go play with your dog!

Superior quality
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
We have 2 Australian Shepherds that never get tired. The launcher is able to trow the ball very far and very durable. Dogs love the ball and they were not able to destroy it yet. We are very happy with our purchase.

Fetch? Yes please!
Style: Classic, Size: 26in
Great for fetch. Small learning curve to release the ball where you want. Good size for my dog. Comes with a felt ball which is just stupid for fetch--gets so dirty. I like the color, my dog can see blue and she loves when I bring it out. I broke my first one, snapped the neck, but these work great, fine price. The amount of joy my dog gets from it is worth every penny.
