This bromeliad loves bright, indirect sunlight. It can tolerate some shade but avoid direct, harsh sunlight, which may scorch the leaves.
Fill the central cup (the “tank”) with water and keep it topped up. Flush it out every few weeks to prevent stagnation. Water the soil lightly when dry.
The plant blooms once, then slowly dies back. Pups (offsets) will form at the base and can be repotted to grow new plants.
It's important to adjust your watering routine based on the time of year and specific environmental conditions like humidity and temperature.
