Neoregelia capixaba

Neoregelia capixaba is a tank bromeliad endemic to southeastern Brazil, described by Pereira and Leme in 1985; its name refers to Espirito Santo state. Little is published on its habitat, so grow it like other Atlantic Forest Neoregelia: bright filtered light, warm days, a water-filled cup and fast-draining mix.

Where it grows wild

No species-specific habitat notes were found; Atlantic Forest Neoregelia typically grow as epiphytes or on rocks in humid forest, where brighter light brings out leaf color.

No elevation data for the species; the climate comes from a regional point at about 580 m, and Espirito Santo Neoregelia occur from lowland forest up into the mountains.
