1. General Information

Choosing a Location: Guzmania 'Intro' prefers bright, indirect light, with some shade. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Planting Medium: Well-draining, loose, and porous potting mix (orchid mix or bromeliad mix are suitable options).

Planting Method: Plant Guzmania 'Intro' in a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot. Place the plant in the center of the pot, covering the roots with the potting mix.

Fertilization: Apply a balanced, liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season.

4. Care

Pruning: Remove dead or yellowing leaves, and spent flower stalks to maintain a healthy appearance.
