Care

General Maintenance: Requires high humidity and good aeration. Prefers shallow pots. Does not need to be repotted often.

Temperature: 18C – 27C

Light: Bright indirect light is best. Direct sun will scorch the foliage.

Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil is dry. Water can be poured into the cup at the base of the leaves but empty this weekly to remove any debris or insects that may have been caught in the cup. Bromeliads love high humidity, so a pebble tray may be needed for optimal health.

Soil: Any well-draining soil mixture that retains moisture. Mixing in orchid bark helps with aeration and promotes optimal growth.

Fertilizer: Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season with a diluted fertilizer.
