Bromeliads (also known as air plants) do well inside the home if put them in an area with relatively high humidity, such as the kitchen or bathroom. It should receive as much light as possible but direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent foliage damage and sun-scalding. Always keep water in the central cup formed by the plant’s rosette of leaves. A general purpose, liquid houseplant fertilizer can be applied to the potting mix at 1/3 to 1/2 of the recommended dosage every 1 – 2 months. Remember, after the bloom spike is spent, the plant will begin to decline and eventually die. However, before that happens several “pups” will be formed at the base of the parent. Eventually you will be able to separate these and start new plants. Sometimes a hormone is applied to force bromeliads to bloom when they are sold as house plants. This hormone can interfere with the production of pups that form as original plant declines after blooming.
