What makes the Bromeliad Neoregelia 'Guacamole' so special: 

Is not only its captivating appearance but also its relative rarity in cultivation. While Neoregelia bromeliads are widely grown, 'Guacamole' stands out for its unique coloration and visual impact, making it a coveted addition to any plant collection... Caring for the Bromeliad Neoregelia 'Guacamole' is relatively straightforward, but attention to its specific needs is crucial for optimal growth and vibrancy. 

 

Here are some suggested care instructions:

**Light**: Provide bright, indirect sunlight for 'Guacamole', placing it in a location where it receives filtered sunlight or partial shade. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can scorch the leaves.

 

**Temperature**: Maintain moderate temperatures for the plant, ideally between 60°F to 80°F (16°C to 27°C). Protect it from sudden temperature fluctuations and drafts, as these can stress the plant.

 

**Watering**: Keep the central cup of 'Guacamole' filled with water, ensuring it does not dry out completely. Additionally, water the soil around the plant's base to keep it consistently moist but not waterlogged. Use distilled or rainwater if possible, as bromeliads are sensitive to chemicals commonly found in tap water.

 

**Humidity**: Provide moderate humidity levels for 'Guacamole', especially in dry indoor environments. Mist the leaves occasionally or place a tray of water filled with pebbles beneath the plant to increase humidity.

 

**Fertilization**: Feed the plant with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every one to two months during the growing season, from spring to fall. Avoid overfertilizing, as this can lead to salt buildup and damage the plant.

 

**Potting**: 'Guacamole' can be grown in containers filled with a well-draining, acidic potting mix formulated specifically for bromeliads. Repot the plant as needed to accommodate its growth, but avoid burying the central cup, as this can lead to rot.

 

With proper care and attention, the Bromeliad Neoregelia 'Guacamole' will thrive and continue to enchant with its vibrant coloration and unique charm, serving as a prized centerpiece in any plant collection and a stunning accent in indoor or outdoor gardens.
