    Yes, the plant does need some light but avoid direct sunlight. Place the plant in a spot with indirect sunlight for optimal growth. Too little light can result in fewer flowers and slower growth.

    Indoor plants like the Guzmania 'Combi' generally need to be watered once a week. Keep the soil lightly moist, but not too wet. In winter, the water requirement may decrease slightly.

    The plant does not like direct sunlight, but prefers bright, indirect light. Too much sun can cause damage to the leaves. It is therefore better to place the plant in a location where the sunlight is filtered.

    Yes, Guzmania 'Combi' thrives in warmth and does well with a constant temperature between 18-24°C. It is important not to expose the plant to cold drafts or temperatures below 15°C. It is advisable to place the plant in a warm and bright location.

    Yes, the Guzmania 'Combi' belongs to the air-purifying indoor plants and can help improve the air quality in the house. Air-purifying plants absorb harmful substances and release oxygen, which can promote health and well-being. Regularly taking care of and cleaning the plant can optimize its air-purifying properties.

  • Most indoor plants do not require pruning. Remove dead leaves or flowers to keep the plant healthy. In cases of severe damage, branches can be pruned.

    Give the plant regular water, but make sure the soil does not become too wet. Let the soil lightly dry out between waterings. Use preferably lukewarm and low in calcium water.

    For the Guzmania 'Combi', it is important to use potting soil that is specially formulated for indoor plants. It is recommended to choose a light and well-draining potting soil, such as potting soil for bromeliads. Good potting soil will ensure that the plant receives the right nutrients and can grow healthy.

    For indoor plants, it is important to use a well-draining potting soil that is rich in nutrients. Make sure that the soil remains lightly moist and does not become too wet to prevent root rot. It is advisable to regularly check the soil and fertilize if necessary.

    The plant needs regular watering, especially during the growth period. Keep the potting soil moist, but avoid letting the roots sit in water. Occasionally give the plant a small amount of liquid plant fertilizer during the growth season.

    The leaves of the plant can be cleaned by gently wiping them with a damp cloth. Avoid using chemicals or harsh cleaning agents. Occasionally giving them a shower can also help to remove dust and dirt from the leaves.

    The plant thrives best in a bright location, but avoid direct sunlight. A window facing east or west is ideal. Provide enough indirect sunlight to keep the plant healthy.

    The Guzmania plant thrives best at a temperature between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Make sure the plant does not experience sudden temperature fluctuations and avoid drafty places. Keep the plant away from drafty windows and heaters to promote optimal growth.

    The optimal humidity for indoor plants like this one is between 50-60%. Increasing humidity can be done by regularly misting with water or using a humidifier. Low humidity can cause leaves to dry out and growth issues.

    The ideal pH level for indoor plants is between 5.5 and 6.5 on the pH scale. It is important to regularly check the acidity of the soil and adjust it if necessary with special fertilizers. A too high or too low pH level can affect the growth and health of the plant.

    Houseplants like the Guzmania require regular fertilization during the growing season. Use a balanced fertilizer specifically for indoor plants according to the instructions on the packaging. Avoid over-fertilizing to prevent damage to the roots.
