    Last year I moved (from New England) to Java - the Tropics - just 6° south of the Equator... here in the garden we have the largest, t most luxurious, Bromeliads imaginable. I recently made a quick trip to Singapore which is almost right ON the Equator - even along downtown streets in Singapore there are gigantic trees with beautiful, large, exuberant Bromeliads, Ferns & Epiphytes growing all along their branches. It's stunning.

    I have mine in the shade by the front door. It’s doing wonderfully.

    Now I understand why it's not advisable to plant them in landscape because when it rains for days, the water might get stuck and you're not able to drain it that well. Hm, will still put it on my landscape but planted on a pot. Thanks for this vid.

      There's no reason to drain them outdoors. You only drain them indoors so it doesn't smell funky.

    I get them for $5 at lowes in the clearance section in beautiful condition. $5 goes a long way when you can propagate.

    Lasts 6 months and dies. Water them in leaves and are drought resistant. Doesn't need direct light indoors. Easy to care for.

    • @bonitabromeliads

      They don't die. They grow offshoots, so one plant will turn into 2 to 5. They live forever that way.

    It's surprising that they are tropical and don't like water...

      It's more about the variety. Common ones are not expensive, rare ones can be very very expensive.

    Bromeliads are not succulents. Completely different water storage system

      This is correct. Some use tanks, some use trichomes to take humidity in through the leaves. And some are terrestrial and resemble aloe or agave but do not get fleshy.
