Nidularium 'Fireball'
Nidularium 'Fireball' is a colourful bromeliad forming compact rosettes of glossy, strap-shaped foliage. The leaves develop increasingly intense pink to fiery red tones when grown in good light, creating a vibrant tropical display throughout the year.
Compact and naturally clump-forming, 'Fireball' is ideal for shelves, bright windowsills and grouped houseplant displays. Mature plants may also produce small purple flowers from the centre of the rosette, while offsets gradually develop around the parent plant to form a larger colony.
- Other names: Fireball Bromeliad
- Useful to know: Produces offsets around the parent plant which can be separated and grown on
- Feature: Glossy green foliage develops vivid pink to fiery red colouring in bright light
- Eventual height: Can grow to approximately 30cm
- Origins: Cultivated bromeliad; Nidularium species originate from tropical South America
