Guzmanias die after a plant has produced its flowers in summer, but new plants can easily be propagated from the offsets which appear as the parent plant dies. They are epiphytes and can do well if tied on to pieces of bark with roots bound into sphagnum moss.
Guzmanias require warm temperatures and relatively high humidity. The sac fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana (anamorph of Cochliobolus sativus) and others can cause fatal root rot in plants of this genus if the roots get too wet and cold. Ascomycota is a Division / Phylum of Fungi, and subkingdom Dikarya, whose members are commonly known as the Sac Fungi. The Fungus Cochliobolus sativus is the teleomorph (sexual stage of Bipolaris sorokiniana (anamorph which is the causal agent of a wide Root rot is a condition found in both indoor and outdoor plants although more common in indoor plants with poor drainage
