Its compact growth habit and vibrant coloring make it a perfect statement plant for desks, shelves, terrariums, or small indoor spaces.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp style=\"max-width: 850px; margin: 0 auto 32px auto;\"\u003e\n    Unlike many bromeliads, Cryptanthus grows in soil rather than mounted displays, making it easy to care for indoors.
