Cryptanthus Mini Red Star is a small tropical plant from the Bromeliad family, characterized by its star-shaped foliage, giving it the nickname "earth star." Native to Brazil, it is a robust yet small plant (reaching a maximum height of 10 cm) and is therefore particularly suitable for small tropical and subtropical terrariums (starting from 20x15 cm), paludariums, and creative terrariums.
It requires medium-high light intensity and regular watering throughout the year, thus requiring high humidity, without ever allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
A growing temperature of 25-28°C and 80-90% humidity are recommended.
