Tips for growing your plant successfully:

Light: Vriesea Monoa Valley is best grown in partial shade to shade. Also grows very well indoors.

Soil: Generally, Bromeliads which grow terrestrially, require good drainage and like to grow in soil which is airy and fast draining. We recommend the addition of compost or fine bark to the planting area. When growing your plant in containers, it is also important to ensure that your soil is light, airy and free draining. A combination of a good quality potting soil with the addition of either palm peat, fine pine bark, river gravel, perlite or vermiculite is recommended.

Watering: Many Bromeliads are surprisingly water wise. When watering, water your plant thoroughly, then allow to dry out before watering again. Always ensure that there is water in your Bromeliad’s tank, cup or reservoir. The frequency of watering will vary according to the season. Remember if you are unsure as to whether to water or not, rather keep the plant on a drier side as overwatering can lead to fungal problems which can kill a plant quickly.

Fertiliser: Use a balanced fertilizer at half the recommended strength once a month during spring and summer.

Temperature: Vriesea Monoa Valley is best grown in areas where the minimum temperature does not fall lower than 3 degrees Celsius although it will cope with occasional light frost if provided with some protection.

Please Note:

The plant is currently growing in a 15 cm plastic pot. It will be supplied bare root (without a pot or soil). Although our plants are grown under the same conditions and we carefully handpick your plant to ensure the best quality possible, no two plants are identical. The colours of plants can also vary according to the season. The photograph is of an adult plant and is for reference purposes only and is not the size of the plants offered for sale.
