Hi there,
(My apologies, I first posted this tagging on to someone else's question)
A friend came by today after he found this bromeliad on the side of the road (= we don't know the history of it).
I started reading up on bromeliad care to see in how good/bad shape it is. I have attached some images as I am wondering if the plant suffers from heart rot?
Here some details on how it arrived:
- the soil (and centre of the plant) was bone-dry
- I didn't notice a rotten smell/the leaves did not seem loose
- it was warm today and rained later in the afternoon so I left it outside to take in some rainwater
- later I filled the center with some filtered water
Can you assist me with care instructions/is there still hope? The plant has a few brown tips on its leaves and a few of the central leaves are brown at their bottom stem. The pictures highlight how the center of the plant looks...
