{"product_id":"vriesea-fenestralis","title":"Vriesea fenestralis","description":"\u003cp\u003eVriesea fenestralis is a spectacular bromeliad native to the Atlantic Forest of Brazil (Espirito Santo to Rio de Janeiro) and was first introduced to European cultivation around 1872. Its species name, derived form the Latin \u003cem\u003efenestra\u003c\/em\u003e meaning \"window,\" was given in allusion to the beautiful ornamentation of its leaves. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe plants form an impressive, upright rosette of 60 or more broadly linear, arching-recurved leaves. Each leaf is a masterpiece of nature, featuring a pale green base overlaid with a regular pattern of narrow dark green longitudinal lines and irregular transverse bands. This striking crosshatch pattern gives the appearance of \"windows\" across the foliage. The reverse side of the leaves often features fine red speckling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn summer, it produces a tall, erect scape up to 52 cm long with a loose, spike-like raceme of green floral bracts and greenish-white flowers. While the inflorescence is modes, the foliage makes it a collector favorite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare Instructions: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight which can cause leaf scorch and crispy, bleached patches. It is best to use filtered or distilled water to avoid mineral salts as Vriesea are sensitive to tap water. Keep the soil evenly moist, but not soggy. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rainforest Flora","offers":[{"title":"6\" Pot","offer_id":49848804671730,"sku":null,"price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0711\/1763\/5826\/files\/IMG_6646.jpg?v=1785105020","url":"https:\/\/rainforestflora.com\/products\/vriesea-fenestralis","provider":"Rainforest Flora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
