Origin
The Guzmania Fiero mix is a tropical plant originally from Central and South America. The plant is named after the Spanish naturalist and pharmacist Anastasio Guzmán, who first discovered it. In the wild, Guzmanias often grow in rainforests, specifically on tree branches.

Characteristics
The Guzmania Fiero mix is known for its bright, large, chalice-shaped bracts. The bracts can have various vibrant colours, such as red, orange, yellow or purple, which makes the plant a striking appearance. The leaves of the plant are long, green and thin, growing in a rosette shape around the core. The flowers of the Fiero mix are small and are hidden in the large bracts.

Care
Because the Guzmania Fiero mix is a tropical plant, it thrives best in a warm, humid environment. The ideal temperature for the plant lies between 16 and 24 degrees Celsius. The plant needs little light and should not be placed in direct sunlight, as this can damage the leaves. In terms of watering, it is important to always keep the rosette moist and ensure that there is always some water in it. Regular spraying can also help increase the air humidity around the plant. In addition, immediately remove dead leaves to prevent rot and diseases.
