Bromeliad guzmania

The Bromeliad is the most commonly used tropical plant in indoor spaces and office buildings. They are tropical plants with a unique flower that lasts for months. In nature the Bromeliad is an epiphyte, growing in tree canopies and collecting water in the rosette of its leaves when it rains. The low light requirements and showy flowers of the Bromeliad make it the go-to plant for indoor or shady location arrangements.

During hot summer months, water the Bromeliad often, filling the rosette with water several times a week. During winter, the plant slows its growth and will need less water. Once the main flower is done showing off, the Bromeliad will begin to grow secondary flowers, or pups, at the base of the parent plant. The secondary flowers then put on a show when the time is right. Remove pups and plant singly for the best flower show.
