Nidularium Fireball White Bromeliad House Plant 5.5cm Pot
Nidularium Fireball White is a beautiful and easy-to-care-for bromeliad that is native to Brazil. Here are some tips for keeping your Nidularium Fireball White healthy and thriving:
-
Light: Nidularium Fireball White prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves.
-
Water: Water your Nidularium Fireball White by pouring water into the cup-like structure at the center of the plant. Change the water every 1-2 weeks to prevent stagnation and bacterial growth. If the plant is potted, keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.
-
Humidity: Nidularium Fireball White prefers moderate to high humidity levels. You can increase humidity by placing a humidifier nearby or by misting the plant with water.
-
Temperature: Nidularium Fireball White prefers temperatures between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Avoid exposing it to cold drafts or sudden temperature changes.
-
Soil: Nidularium Fireball White does not require soil if grown as an epiphyte. If potted, use a well-draining soil mix that contains peat moss, perlite, or sand.
-
Fertilizer: Feed your Nidularium Fireball White with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
-
Repotting: Nidularium Fireball White does not require repotting very often. However, if the plant has outgrown its container or the potting mix has become compacted, repot it in the spring.
-
Propagation: Nidularium Fireball White can be propagated by removing the offsets, or "pups," that grow from the base of the plant. Wait until the pup is at least one-third the size of the parent plant before separating it. Plant the pup in a well-draining potting mix and care for it as you would a mature plant.
By following these tips, you can help your Nidularium Fireball White thrive and produce its beautiful, white leaves and pink flowers.
