Can This Bromeliad Be Rehydrated?

Can This Bromeliad Be Rehydrated? In last weeks Brom Vlog we looked at some telltale signs of dryness in our bromeliads, so today we'll take our worst example and see if our bromeliad can be rehydrated! Will it work? Let's find out... so come on everybody, "Let's get growing and have some fun!"

Hi Rusty! I can be in a crappy mood, then I watch one of your videos, and the world feels much lighter, so thanks for your enthusiasm, knowledge, and delightful demeanor!

Had a few of those compacta variety that are on palms, but yep...watered the hell out of them and they spring back. Good stuff Rusty!
Can you do a video on broms that inadvertently collect palm flowers and berries in their tanks and is it okay for that to occur...I generally flush them all, but think some of this debris may be helpful for fertiliser naturally??

When it comes to debris in the cups some organic matter will break down and offer some natural fertilizer to the plant, but it might be a Goldilocks scenario, where there can be a 'too much' issue... I have seen broms grown under Live Oak canopy that suffered meristem rot because of heavy leaf accumulation. Great idea for a vid, Thanks Mike!
