🔆 Light Requirements

• Ideal Light: Bright, indirect light intensifies the pink coloration.

• Tolerates: Moderate light; can survive lower-light conditions, though colors may be muted.

• Avoid: Direct sunlight, which can scorch leaves, and deep shade, which may dull colors.

💧 Watering Guidelines

• When to Water: Keep the soil lightly moist; allow the top inch to dry slightly between waterings.

• Frequency: About once a week, adjusting for humidity and season.

• Important: Avoid waterlogging; standing water can cause root rot.

🌾 Soil & Potting

• Soil: Well-draining mix with peat, sand, and perlite.

• Pot: Shallow containers with drainage holes are ideal, as roots are shallow.

🌱 Fertilization

• Feed: Every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a diluted bromeliad or balanced fertilizer.

• Avoid: Heavy feeding in fall and winter when growth slows.

✂️ Pruning & Maintenance

• Prune: Remove dead or damaged leaves to keep rosettes neat.

• Repotting: Every 2–3 years or when the plant outgrows its container.

🪴 Humidity & Temperature

• Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity; mist occasionally if indoor air is dry.

• Temperature: Thrives between 18–27°C (65–80°F). Keep away from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F).
