Vriesea rectifolia

Vriesea rectifolia is a little-known bromeliad described by Werner Rauh in 1984 from north-eastern Brazil. GBIF holds no occurrence records, so its habitat is not documented in the sources reachable here. Treat it like other bright-growing Brazilian vrieseas, and adjust once you know your plant's origin.
