Catopsis –<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are about 20 species of evergreen, epiphytic perennial (bromeliads), in this genus. They occur from low land and rainforest. They occur up to altitudes of 6,500′ feet in South North America, Central America, South America, the West Indies. The prominently sheathed leaves form funnel shaped rosettes and are lance shaped, smooth edged, and often with a coating of white powdery scales. In summer, it bears erect, arching or pendent panicles of small, white or pale yellow flowers. Both male and female plants are needed to obtain fruit.<\/p>\n

Indoors, grow epiphytically on bark or wood slabs, or in epiphytic bromeliad potting mix in bright filtered light. In summer, water moderately, mist frequently, apply a quarter strength foliar fertilizer monthly and provide high humidity. Water sparingly at all other times.<\/p>\n
