Care of Bromeliad Vriesea Splendens – Plant

Light: Place your plant in strong, indirect light to offer adequate illumination while avoiding direct sunlight exposure.
Watering: When it comes to watering your Bromeliad Vriesea Splendens, simply fill its central rosette with water, taking care not to let it overflow. To prevent stagnation, remember to regularly empty and refresh the water in the rosette.
Soil: To ensure the plant’s roots receive proper aeration and moisture control, it’s advisable to use a well-draining bromeliad mix or orchid mix.
Humidity: Maintain moderate humidity levels. If the air in your home is too dry, consider misting the plant occasionally or using a humidity tray.
Fertilization: Feed your Vriesea Splendens with a diluted, balanced, liquid fertilizer every 2-3 months during the growing season.
Flowering: After the plant flowers, it may produce offsets (pups) at its base. Wait until these pups are at least one-third the size of the mother plant, then carefully separate them and repot them into their containers.
Pruning: To maintain its appearance, you can gently pull away any dead or yellowing leaves from the base of the plant.
Pests: Frequently examine your plant for pests such as mealybugs or scale insects. If you happen to spot any, you can gently remove them with a damp cloth or, alternatively, employ insecticidal soap for effective control.
Resting Period: After flowering, the plant may go into a rest period. During this phase, it’s advisable to cut back on watering and fertilization until you notice signs of new growth.
