Mini Neoregelia 'Annick' (N. carolinae hybrid x N. 'Fireball')

Mini Neoregelia 'Annick' is a vibrant hybrid bromeliad known for its striped leaves and a dazzling red center. Created by Chester Skotak in 1991, it is a cross between a Neoregelia carolinae hybrid and 'Fireball'. 

 Key Features

• Size: It stays relatively compact, growing to about 20-25cm (8-10") in diameter
  
• Foliage: Leaves have a dark green center with striking greyed-yellow or white margins. Under bright light or during blooming, the innermost leaves turn a brilliant red-purple. The "blush" is the plant's main attraction and can last for 3 to 5 months
  
• While very similar to 'Donger' in color and shape, the leaves of 'Annick' are larger and it produces around max 2 pups at a time
• Great for tabletops, vivariums, or planted outdoors
  

Care:

• Bright, indirect light to maintain intense coloration (south-facing windows are ideal)
  
• Keep central cup filled with fresh water, changing regularly
• High humidity (40-80%) to mimic natural epiphytic conditions
• Minimal fertilization to preserve compact growth and color intensity
