Neoregelia paratiensis

A tank bromeliad named after Paraty on the Rio de Janeiro coast, in the very wet coastal Atlantic forest of the Serra do Mar. Grow it like other coastal Neoregelia: bright filtered light, a filled central cup, humid moving air and an airy epiphytic mix.

Where it grows wild

The name points to the Paraty area, where Neoregelia grow as epiphytes or on rocks in humid coastal forest. No georeferenced wild records exist, so the habitat is inferred from the name and the genus.

No elevation data. The Paraty coast runs from sea level up the Serra do Mar to over 1,000 m.
