Hi all!

Anthurium growers, how do I tell if the new stalk is going to be another leaf or flower? I've tried to go around looking at the Ants. in GHs to see if I can tell the difference. I cannot. It appears that the same stalk that bears a new leaf could also be the one that bears a new flower! also, the new leaves that are forming at the base of the plant have a reddish backside, whereas the older leaves do not.
