It belongs to the Bromeliaceae family and has gained a following among bromeliad collectors as a genuinely rare find in the houseplant world.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Flower_a2da558c-5726-458a-a06c-1a5f7fedc366_480x480.png?v=1600397290\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  'Donger' forms a low, spreading rosette of broad, strap-like leaves with serrated edges. The foliage runs green with banding or mottling, and the central cup deepens toward red or burgundy-red as the plant matures or receives brighter light. The rosette stays relatively compact, with leaves arching outward in a flat, circular pattern.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Growing_2961efa3-9828-496c-8a2c-fa57f0dd8914_480x480.png?v=1600399365\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Like most Neoregelia species, 'Donger' blooms from the central cup, producing small flowers nestled at the water line inside the tank. The bloom period typically triggers a flush of color in the inner leaves, with the center blushing more intensely around flowering. It is pet-friendly, and it naturally humidifies the surrounding air as part of its normal moisture exchange.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg alt=\"\" class=\"lazyloaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Lotus_07a2c657-f263-49f7-9bb9-69b9f3b0f4df_480x480.png?v=1600397267\" height=\"16\" width=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Lotus_07a2c657-f263-49f7-9bb9-69b9f3b0f4df_480x480.png?v=1600397267\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Rotate 'Donger' regularly so every side of the rosette receives even light exposure. It thrives in the moisture-rich air near a kitchen, and the central cup should always hold fresh water, emptied and refilled weekly to prevent stagnation. Keep it away from air conditioning and heating vents, as direct airflow dries the air faster than the plant can compensate. It fits well in a terrarium setup and can move outside for summer, as long as temperatures stay warm and stable.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Neoregelia Donger grows well in bright indirect light, such as a few feet back from an east or north-facing window.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Water_d9b740b9-bfce-41c4-ae3e-16bf9678c77f_480x480.png?v=1600397177\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Water_d9b740b9-bfce-41c4-ae3e-16bf9678c77f_480x480.png?v=1600397177\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  Water it by filling the central cup weekly and refreshing the soil every ten to fourteen days, keeping the mix lightly moist.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" class=\"ls-is-cached lazyloaded\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  'Donger' does best in a fast-draining bromeliad or orchid mix blended with perlite for airflow around the roots.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Temperature.png?v=1613688445\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  It prefers temperatures between 60°F and 85°F and should not be exposed to air below 50°F.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg height=\"16\" width=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Fertilizer_5853ff19-6010-410a-a082-3abe233cb8d2_480x480.png?v=1600399297\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  'Donger' is a slow grower; feed it with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength once a month during spring and summer only.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cimg height=\"16\" width=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Spackle_0b1c313b-e538-42e0-8818-7f0bdf63d530_480x480.png?v=1600397104\" alt=\"\"\u003e \u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e  It is hardy in USDA zones 10 to 12, tolerating outdoor conditions where temperatures stay reliably above 50°F.
