Know before you buy
Unlike most houseplants, you should water the central cup or 'tank' of the plant, where the leaves meet. Keep this cup filled with fresh water and occasionally flush it out to prevent stagnation.
No, the Bromeliad Guzmania is considered toxic to pets. It is best to place it in a location that is inaccessible to curious animals.
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct, harsh sunlight, which can scorch the leaves and fade the vibrant yellow bracts.
The yellow bracts are long-lasting and can remain vibrant for several months. However, they are a temporary feature of the plant's flowering cycle and will eventually fade as the plant matures.
The plant arrives in a 4-inch nursery pot, established and ready for display. You can place it directly into a decorative cachepot of your choice as long as it has proper drainage.
