Neoregelia silvimontana

A Neoregelia from northeastern Brazil whose name points to montane forest, most likely the humid hill forests of Bahia's Atlantic Forest zone. Habitat information is thin; grow it like other forest Neoregelia, with bright filtered light, warmth, humidity and a filled central cup.

Where it grows wild

Presumably epiphytic or on rocks in humid montane Atlantic Forest, as the epithet suggests; there is no species-specific habitat data.

No recorded elevations; montane forest in northeastern Brazil lies roughly 500–1200 m. The climate point at 436 m is a regional centroid, not a collection site.
