Pro Tips
Too much light can bleach the leaves, and too little light dulls their color, so bright, indirect light is best. Bromeliads love humidity, so mist them occasionally or leave them in a tray of pebbles and water. This plant is actually an air plant that uses its roots for support. Bromeliads have a pronounced life cycle, so your plant may begin producing offsets in its second year.
Origin
Sometimes called Blushing Bromeliad, Bromeliad Neoregelia is native to tropical rainforests in Southeastern Brazil. It is an epiphyte, meaning it naturally gets all its' water and nutrients from the air. They survive in the wild by clinging to trees or rocks. Originally named after Eduard August von Regel, Director of St. Petersburg Botanic Gardens in Russia in the 1800s. In the wild, the Bromeliad has a symbiotic relationship with poison dart frogs, who lay eggs in the cup-shaped flowers, which protect them from predators. The plant then absorbs nutrients from the frog and tadpole waste products left behind!
