My bromeliad’s leaves are curling and at the base it looks like it is drying up.. so far people in my office feel that the plant
a. needs more watering
b. is not getting enough light.

I have been watering the plant once a week and misting and thought that would be adequate. It was sitting on my counter in indirect sunlight. The room gets a lot of light streaming in all day but still my bromeliad looks sick. Also the water in the center cup of the plant was super stinky after one week… Is this ok?

Latest action: I have stopped misting. In the past 7 days I have given it more water and now have put it in direct sunlight… I watered last Wed and Fri and today Tuesday. The plant looks like it is uncurling and little healthier. My concern is that I may over water the plant! But it does look better today… Help!

I have a Neoregelia Bromeliad. The parent plant has died off. I like the look of the Bromelaid on a log or in a open vase maybe with stones….Does anyone know how i can do that? of if i can? I have a “black thumb” and am trying my best for a green one…
Thanks
