Key Features:

• Distinctive Foliage: Neoregelia ‘Irazu’ features glossy, light green, slightly glaucous leaves adorned with red speckles. The leaves have creamy white variegated margins, and the undersides are heavily banded with light red, giving the plant a pinkish cast.

Care Requirements:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct sunlight, which helps enhance the pinkish cast on the leaves, but avoid intense, midday sun to prevent leaf burn.
• Water: Keep the central rosette filled with water during the growing season. Water the soil sparingly, allowing it to dry out slightly between waterings. Reduce watering during the dormant period.
• Soil: Thrives in well-draining soil, such as a mix designed for bromeliads or orchids. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
• Temperature: Best suited for temperatures between 15-25°C. Protect from frost and extreme cold.
