Known for dramatic flowerings, bromeliads are among the youngest plants to evolve on Earth…appearing just a mere 10 million years ago. Interesting.

• Bright light is best. But not direct sunlight.
• General rule of thumb: water well and allow to dry before watering again.
• Many bromeliads have a “cup” in the center. This cup should have water. If empty, water the plant.
• Flush out cup with fresh water periodically to prevent stagnant water.
• If outdoors, do not leave water in cup if under 40 degrees.
• If below freezing, cover thoroughly or bring inside.
• Indoor plants may need misting on leaves every couple weeks in addition to watering.
