This plant is known for its air-purifying properties, contributing to a healthier living environment. The Guzmania 'Cupcake' primarily showcases its beauty through foliage and striking bracts rather than traditional flowers.

Expect a maximum height and spread of up to 60 cm, making it a manageable size for most spaces. It requires no trimming, adding to its low-maintenance appeal. While it thrives indoors, it's not suited for outdoor growth in cooler climates.

Plant Care Guide

Guzmania 'Cupcake' care involves simple routines. It prefers bright, indirect light and a warm environment, away from cold drafts and direct sunlight. Water the central cup rather than the soil, allowing it to dry out slightly between waterings. Mist occasionally to maintain humidity, especially in dry interiors. Feed with a diluted liquid fertilizer during the growing season. No special tools are required, just a watering can or spray bottle for misting.

Creating an urban paradise

Our dream is to transform urban living into a plant lovers' paradise. Making our neighbourhoods a wonderful place is good for our wellbeing and more friendly to the environment. A shared vision that gets us out of bed in the morning.

We've curated a botanical sanctuary

Our team of horticulturists planned our garden centre to show plants in their natural habitat, with inspirational displays. Looking for plants is like taking a walk in a botanical sanctuary.
And for those that consider our canine friends an essential part of life, bring your best mate along. Hopefully, they'll get along with our house cat Blue Bell.

It so happens we stock some fabulous plants

Our garden centre specialises in rare specimen plants beyond the common garden varieties. We also stock everything you need to cultivate your dream garden, home and office, with the largest range of plants, pots and containers in North London.
