Details: Cryptanthus 'Earth Star' or 'Starfish Plant' is a Bromeliad native to the tropical climate of Brazil. This terrestrial plant possesses breathtaking colors and resembles a fallen or twinkling star. A member of the Bromeliaceae family, the Earth Star has stunning, water-storing foliage that brightens in the sun. Low-growing Cryptanthus plants are petite beauties that can reach up to six inches tall; complementary to small pots, fairy gardens or terrariums. This species grows with flat, serrated leaves and enjoys humidity. Outdoors, the Cryptanthus plant will favor warmer temperatures (65 to 75 degrees) but can tolerate cooler temperatures indoors. Longitudinal stripes run along each leaf to contrast the plant's primary colors (which can range from shades of green, vibrant pinks, reds and more). Thriving with indirect sun, the Starfish Plant is going to respond well to areas of the home where light shines through. For drainage, a bromeliad potting mix is recommended when growing the Cryptanthus in a pot and consistent moisture (with light watering cycles) will help development. The colorful Earth Star plant has the capability to bloom a partially hidden, small, white flower from the center bract once during a lifespan. The Red Star will shine when the plant is accented with an eye-catching, novelty pot or ceramic planter. These tiny, varied Bromeliad plants may be grown by themselves as singular decorations or together in mass for a larger display. Each prime, real Earth Star is fully rooted and arrives in a starter container.
