A fascinating and appealing feature of Bromeliads is how well they grow epiphytically. Bromeliads grown in a tree or on a tree stump or large piece of decorative driftwood adds a wonderfully interesting and extraordinary dimension to a garden or outdoor living space. When growing Bromeliads epiphytically it is important to ensure that the cups or reservoirs of the plants are filled with water. During the hot summer months, the plants will require regular misting or watering. Never allow the cups to dry out as this will cause the plants to deteriorate.
