    Yes, the plant needs a lot of light but not direct sunlight. Place the plant in a spot with bright but indirect light. Too little light can result in less colorful leaves.

    Houseplants like Guzmania need water about once a week. It is important to keep the potting soil moist, but not waterlogged. It is better to give a little less water occasionally than too much.

    The plant does not like direct sunlight and prefers a spot in partial shade. Too much sun can damage the leaves. It is therefore better to place the plant in a location where the light is filtered.

    Yes, the plant loves warmth and thrives best at temperatures between 20-25 degrees Celsius. It is important not to expose the plant to cold drafts.

    Yes, the Guzmania 'Rosie' is air-purifying. It improves the air quality in the house by absorbing harmful substances and converting them into oxygen. It is a good choice for a healthy living environment.

  • There is no need to prune the Guzmania. Simply remove any dead leaves or flowers to keep the plant healthy. It is important to regularly check the plant for any maintenance needs.

    Give the plant regularly water, ensuring that the soil is always moist but not waterlogged. Do not let the plant dry out and avoid leaving water in the cup.

    Guzmania 'Rosie' thrives well in well-draining potting soil with a slightly acidic pH. It is important for the potting soil to remain moist but not too wet to prevent root rot. It is recommended to repot the plant with fresh potting soil every 2 years.

    The soil for indoor plants should be well-draining and lightly moist. Use a potting mix specifically for indoor plants and ensure that water can drain properly. Avoid stagnant water to prevent root rot.

    Place the plant in a bright spot, but avoid direct sunlight. Regularly water the plant in the rosette of the leaves and keep the potting soil moist. Use plant food once every two weeks in the spring and summer.

    To clean the plant, you can gently remove dust from the leaves with a soft cloth or a duster. Avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals and make sure the plant does not get too wet during cleaning. Regularly misting the leaves with lukewarm water can also help keep the plant fresh and dust-free.

    The Guzmania 'Rosie' needs bright, indirect sunlight. It is important to keep the plant out of direct afternoon sun to prevent burning. Place the plant in a spot where it receives at least 6 hours of light per day.

    The optimal temperature for this plant is between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. It is important to keep the plant away from drafts and cold temperatures. Also, make sure the plant is not too close to heating elements.

    The humidity level for the plant should be between 60-70%. This can be achieved by watering regularly or using a humidifier. A too dry air can lead to brown leaf tips and reduced plant growth.

    Houseplants thrive best in a neutral to slightly acidic soil with a pH value between 6.0 and 7.0. It is important to regularly check the acidity of the soil and adjust if necessary with special fertilizers. A high pH value can lead to nutrient deficiencies and growth problems in houseplants.

    Houseplants like Guzmania do not require specific fertilization. It is sufficient to fertilize them once every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a general houseplant fertilizer. Over-fertilizing can damage the plant, so be careful with the amount of fertilizer given.
