Guzmania lingulata, known as the scarlet star, is a striking epiphytic perennial that forms a lush, star-shaped basal rosette of leathery, tongue-like green leaves. Reaching up to two feet in height, it features a brilliant central inflorescence of vivid red or orange bracts that can last for months. Ideal for indoor spaces and low-light offices, it thrives in warm, humid conditions with bright indirect light. It requires well-draining soil and water kept within its central foliage cup.
