🌞 Light

A little morning or late afternoon sun is fine, but avoid harsh midday rays.

-
Soak in room-temperature water for 20–30 mins once a week.

In warmer/drier homes, mist lightly in between.

After soaking, shake gently and let them dry upside down to prevent rot.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
-
Prefer 15–26°C.
-
Higher humidity helps, but make sure they always dry fully after watering.

No soil needed — they thrive in shells, driftwood, glass globes, or hanging.
-
Ensure good air circulation.
🌸 Feeding

Fertilise with bromeliad or orchid fertiliser once a month (diluted).
✂️ General Tips

They’ll reward you with unique flowers when happy.
