Origin
The Cryptanthus 'Super Pink' is a low-growing plant species native to Brazil. This plant belongs to the Bromeliad family, a group of plants that primarily occur in the rainforests of Central and South America. Over the centuries, this ornamental plant has become a popular choice among plant enthusiasts due to its exotic appearance.

Characteristics
The Cryptanthus 'Super Pink' is distinctive for its striking, pink-leafy forms. The leaves are low to the ground and are arranged in a rosette shape. In its mature state, this plant reaches a maximum height of about 15 centimetres. This makes the 'Super Pink' an ideal pot plant for small spaces. Moreover, this species occasionally produces an inconspicuous white flower at the heart of the plant.

Care
Despite its exotic appearance, the care of the Cryptanthus 'Super Pink' is quite straightforward. The plant needs a light spot, but cannot tolerate direct sunlight. A temperature between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius is ideal. The Cryptanthus 'Super Pink' prefers a higher humidity, so a spot in the bathroom or kitchen may be suitable. When watering, it is important to water moderately; too much water can lead to root rot.
