Neoregelia 'Heat Raisin'

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Neoregelias develop their best color with good light exposure, but avoid direct afternoon sun which can scorch the leaves. 
• Temperature: Thrives in warm to intermediate temperatures. Ideal daytime temperatures range between 20-30°C (68-86°F), with nighttime temperatures around 15-21°C (59-70°F).
• Humidity: Requires moderate to high humidity, ideally between 50-70%. 
• Watering: Water by filling the central tank (rosette) with water, ensuring it is always about 1/4 to 1/2 full. 

Additional Notes

• Foliage Coloration: 'Heat Raisin' is particularly admired for its mid-green leaves with white margins and prominent bright pinkish-red spots. Unlike some other Neoregelia varieties, it typically does not exhibit a central flush of color during blooming. The intensity of the red and pink spotting is directly influenced by light levels, with brighter indirect light promoting more vibrant hues.
• Blooming Cycle: Like other bromeliads, Neoregelias typically bloom once in their lifetime.
