Keep the central crevices, or ‘cup’, topped up with filtered water - that’s how it hydrates in the wild.

Originally from South America, this popular tropical plant is epiphytic (which means it grows on other plants) and can be found attaching themselves to trees in the jungle. Because of this, they have an unusual way of staying hydrated.
Instead of taking water up through their roots, they collect rainwater in the crevices of their leaves and the central ‘cup’. You can make them feel right at home by watering them in the same way - even better if you’re using distilled water or collected rainwater.
Great plants for Vivariums.
Pot size: 11cm. Non toxic to pets.
Watering
It will tolerate lower light, but bright, indirect light is best. Near window is perfect.
Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves. Collections or 'mixed' listings for plants will be selected dependant on availability and carefully hand-picked to ensure their quality.
