What is the floral meaning of the Bromeliad (Guzmania)?

1. Its floral meaning

This flower belongs to the bromeliad family, and its flowers are very vivid in color, which is why it has this name. Its floral meaning is perfection. Its flowers grow at the very top of the stem, and both the flowers and leaves are very dense, with colors that are very festive. Its leaves look like broad ribbons and are dark green, and the flower shape is like a cone with a pale yellow tip. Because its top is covered with red flowers, people used this name for it, meaning that it can bring good luck.

2. When it blooms

If it is in wild form, it can bloom around June to October. If it is kept at home, it has the chance to bloom all year round. Its blooming period is relatively long, reaching three months or even half a year. Especially when its leaves number more than 30, as long as the temperature is warm enough and humid enough, it can bloom. If you especially want it to bloom faster, you can help it force blooms.

3. Growing environment

1. It likes moist and bright areas. During the day it needs 21-28°C, and at night it should not be lower than 18°C or higher than 21°C, so its requirements for living conditions are still quite high. At the hottest time it must not exceed 35°C, and at the coldest it must not be lower than 10°C, otherwise its growth rate will slow down, and the leaf color will turn red or white.

2. It requires humidity of 75-85%. If it is lower than 50%, its leaves will curl up and look very unsightly.

3. Light should be around 18,000 to 25,000 lux. If it is too intense, its leaves will be scorched; if it is too weak, growth will be poor.
