The description says it's a great indoor plant. How much direct sunlight does this plant need?

I find they do best outside, just not enough sun inside unless you have a large glass patio door, but not every home does. Blueberries like sun, lots of it and true, well watered. I would say the plant needs 6-8 good direct sunlight and semi shade in the late evening.

I haven't tried it as an indoor plant, but I have mine where it gets about 4 to 5 hours of direct sunlight a day

It does fine with morning sun and shade in the afternoon.it like damp feet sow don't let the soil dry out. Larry

I can't answer that because it never germinated for me. I am under the impression it is an indoor plant.

I live in Northern Arkansas. I put my plants in full sun but watch the water level. Yesterday the temp on my deck read 107 after I had watered the soil. No problem. I also have one under the deck cover and it is doing well also. I haven't tried them indoors, but they seem to like the sun here. Good luck.

The lighting is very bright. Very good for plants, too bright for atmosphere. I used for 1 hour then returned it.Now I use a light bar that had a remote for adjusting, brightness and color changes. My plants are doing fine. I think the name brand is Current.

I got mine to use indoors and it has worked out very well. I left out one of the shelves to make room for taller plants, but of course that depends on the plants you have. I recommend this product for indoor use, I hope you enjoy it!!

Hi - I'm sorry I don't know what plant species that is. I tried to use this light for my indoor herbs - but it was not strong enough to maintain my basil plant - but I know that basil requires a lot of light. Hope this helps.

Absolutely. The plant comes with complete care instructions. I planted it in a 24" pot with plain potting soil; no extra fertilizer was added. Within 3 months I have blooms and fruit starting to grow. It did arrive damaged and I had to cut the top 3 branches back, but the bottom branches are doing well. What should have been a 4' plant is now a 3' plant. But, again, thriving indoors.

I only have 1 plant, and it has stayed alive. However, I do keep the light on most of the day for that very reason.

Yes keep in window or well lit area and water when soil is dry it is a very hardy plant!

I purchased this plant almost exactly 4 years ago. It is very healthy with long arching leaves. It has a total of 14 leaves. One leaf is growing almost straight up and measures right about 24 inches from the soil line. It is planted in a pot on a kitchen windowsill that only gets a little sun, but the room is bright in the afternoons due to a large skylight. Very nice plant but no flowers yet after 4 years!! I will follow some advice here about restricting water in November and December and see what happens. Maybe this will be the year!--LB

It depends on amount of light you can give it. The included LED light will not be enough light for growing plants.

I had one in my office cubicle, which got only artificial light, and it thrived. It does need pruning if you want to shape it and you should not let the soil get too dry. But it is a very soothing addition to any room. I never tried putting it outside but my brother has one next to his garden. He just lets it grow naturally in a large pot, much like the shrub that it is. I prefer to domesticate it by keeping it inside.

As I understand it, this type of bromeliad can handle bright light like on a windowsill but not direct sunlight. I keep mine in a living room that has medium light since I keep the shades drawn on 1 side. Like I said in my review I'm crossing my fingers ot see whether I can keep this alive - it's my first airplant, along with a Medussa I bought at the same time...

Don't know for sure, but I do know I had to move mine outside to literally get full sunshine. It was planted where a neighboring bush started shading it around midday. It was looking pathetic. I replanted it out in the open and two weeks later it was vibrant and alive and it is now flowering (which suprised me considering the fact I replanted it twice.

Considering the issues I've had with this plant it is clearly tropical and MUST have extended periods of warmth of above 75 and above degrees with bright sunshine in order to grow and thrive. Anything less and it just hangs on until hot weather returns. Weather colder than 60 degrees with no direct sun will ensure it quickly succumbs to rot or fungus and dies. Even in Central Texas it's been a challenge to create the ideal conditions for this plant. So if you live in NYC and rarely use the heat and only have North facing windows which means little direct, hot warm sunshine the plant will not survive very long there. You'd have to create a mini-greenhouse enclosure to even have a chance.

I was hoping it would, but my plant did not thrive... although it is most likely because I didn't water it regularly. But I actually moved the plant to the top of my cabinet where it is closer to the overhead lights - and it's doing great. The lamp is great for adding light in my cubical and since that was the reason I bought it, I'm happy with it.
