When you say ‘leave the pups on the mother plant as long as you can’ how long should/can that be?

I have not found this to be true. I have had bromeliads over the years that have bloomed repeatedly – spectacular blooms, in fact.

Hello, Is it alright to cut back bromeliad fronds if they have suffered
frostbite? Will they recover if I cut back the brown and unsightly leaves to their bases?
Thank you.

Hi, I own a Bromeliad and my 2yr old 5lb rabbit got ahold of it and ate some of the long greens on it and ate some of the plant itself 2 days ago, now today he’s bleeding out of his mouth so his stomach. I was wondering if this could have anything to do with the plant?? Please get back to me asap is an emergency, thanks.

No, leave the pups until they have roots of their own. Then cut the pups and plant in a separate pot.

Leaves turning brown from outside of root at bottom. What can I do to stop this? Also can you water via the tank of the plant rather than the soil. How often should we fertilize? Help please before this beautiful plant dies.
