Bromeliads are classified as pre-carnivorous plants because they rely on the help of microorganisms for the utilization of their prey. Only a few species, such as Brocchinia reducta and Catopsis spec., are true carnivores! Neoregelia "Red Lips" is characterized by both reddish leaf tips and a variety of brownish-red spots on the leaves. The genus Neoregelia is excellent for keeping in a terrarium. The requirements for the substrate are relatively low. Normal carnivorous plant substrate works just as well as special mixtures for succulents or the mounted (epiphytic) cultivation, such as on bark or in pure peat. You will receive an unpotted plant for mounting or planting.
