Seeds of Anthurium andreanum cv. Temptation collected from the flower spadices were germinated on MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l-1 BAP. After two weeks, 100 % of the seeds germinated. Four weeks later, micro-cuttings from the in vitro germinated seedlings were subcultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium containing 0.5 mg l-1 BAP and 1.0 mg l - 1 GA3 . On an average, 5.9 shoots per explant were obtained. The highest number of roots per shoot and the longest roots were obtained on media containing Nitsch's basal salts with 1.0 mgl -1 IBA. Anthurium andreanum plants regenerated by organogenesis were transferred to pots and 80 per cent of the plants acclimatized successfully.
