ANTHURIUM (ANTHURIUM ANDREANUM)



These are pictures of the lovely anthurium flowers (Anthurium andreanum) that I took during my visit to Cameron Highlands. It is also referred to as "Flamingo Flower" and "Boy Flower". As far as I know, there does not seem to be any medicinal uses for the anthurium. It is commonly used as an ornamental house plant in Malaysia.
Is there any one who might know of some medicinal uses for the anthurium?

Gambar-gambar bunga Anthurium (Anthurium andreanum) ditangkap semasa lawatan saya ke Cameron Highlands? Pokok ini juga diberi nama "Flamingo Flower" dan "Boy Flower". Setahu saya, tiada kegunaan perubatan untuk Anthurium. Ia digunakan sebagai tanaman hiasan di Malaysia.
Ada sesiapa yang memiliki pengetahuan tentang kegunaan perubatan untuk Anthurium?
