Neoregelia kuhlmannii

A tank bromeliad from the Atlantic forest of southeastern Brazil, known from few records. Grow it like other Atlantic-forest Neoregelia: bright filtered light for good leaf colour, water held in the central cup, and a fast-draining epiphytic mix.

Where it grows wild

Probably epiphytic or on rocks in humid Atlantic forest, like most Neoregelia of Espírito Santo and nearby states. No georeferenced wild records exist, so this is inferred from the genus.

No elevation data. Atlantic-forest Neoregelia occur from near sea level to about 1,000 m.
