## Description

desertcart.com : ragnaroc Live Plants – Cryptanthus ‘Rubin‘, 4-8" in 4" Pot - 1ct - Live Arrival Guaranteed - House Plants for Home Decor & Gift : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Beautiful plant, grows fast, but keep it out of bright sun - My plant arrived healthy and once I repotted it, added vitamins/fertilizer, it started pushing out new growth really fast. It’s definitely a strong grower. One thing I learned the hard way is that this plant does not want to sit in bright direct light. I had it in a sunny window and the ends of the leaves started to look a little crispy or papery even though the center was growing like crazy. After moving it to bright indirect light, the new leaves look perfect again. So overall, it came healthy, it’s growing fast, and it’s a really cool-looking plant, just make sure to avoid strong sun or you’ll see some crispy tips. I’d still buy it again.
Review: What a beauty - Absolutely beautiful and nice size. I'm so impressed with the beautiful of this plant 🪴 😍 💕

## Features

- LIVE PLANT: The Cryptanthus Rubin stuns with its deep red, wavy leaves, adding a striking pop of color to any plant collection. A unique earth star bromeliad perfect for terrariums, desktops, or decorative planters.
- EASY-CARE & LOW-MAINTENANCE: Thrives in bright, indirect light or under grow lights. Prefers warm temperatures (65-80°F / 18-27°C) and humidity above 50% for optimal growth.
- WELL-DRAINING SOIL REQUIRED: Grows best in aerated, well-draining soil—use a mix of orchid bark, peat, and perlite. Avoid compacted soil to prevent root suffocation and ensure proper moisture retention.
- WATERING NEEDS: Keep soil lightly moist but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use filtered, distilled, or rainwater to prevent mineral buildup that can damage leaves.
- PET-FRIENDLY & NON-TOXIC: A safe, non-toxic choice for households with pets and children. Its stunning color and easy care make it a perfect gift for plant lovers and collectors alike!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Leaves turning brown?**
A: This is likely due to poor airflow and over-watering. Allow your air plant to dry properly between waterings.

**Q: Leaves turning yellow?**
A: Your plant may be getting too much direct sunlight. Move it away from the window or to a shadier spot.

**Q: How do I plant / mount my air plants?**
A: Anywhere! Simply put on a tray as a center-piece, a valet tray for a pop of color, arrange on a cool dish, mount to a piece of cork/bark, display on felt-coasters, driftwood, or do whatever fits your vibe, just make sure the base gets good airflow.

**Q: Leaves starting to curl?**
A: This is a sign that your plant needs more moisture. Try soaking it in lukewarm water instead of just misting with a spray bottle.

**Q: Plant starting to bloom?**
A: With proper care, your air plant will bloom. Once it blooms, you may notice new "pups" growing from the parent plant. Separate them as desired or leave them to grow together.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful plant, grows fast, but keep it out of bright sun
*by S***. on December 7, 2025*

My plant arrived healthy and once I repotted it, added vitamins/fertilizer, it started pushing out new growth really fast. It’s definitely a strong grower. One thing I learned the hard way is that this plant does not want to sit in bright direct light.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a beauty
*by B***E on January 14, 2026*

Absolutely beautiful and nice size. I'm so impressed with the beautiful of this plant 🪴 😍 💕

### ⭐ Undersized and beat up, but coming back
*by L***R on June 7, 2024*

My cryptanthus arrived on the last day of its two week shipping window. It was to be 4-8” in a 4” pot. The longest leaves were badly damaged, it was quite pale, and the plant itself was barely three inches across; it didn’t even come above the edge of the pot. However, as you can see in the photo, it’s perking up with good care. It’s grown in size though it is still too bleached out for a Rubin. I’m not pleased with its condition and undersize arrival, but with some luck, it’ll be just fine over time and attain the color it should be. [Update one week later: I did some research and it’s clear I didn’t receive a rubin cryptanthus. Looking carefully through the web, it looks like dwarf rose-stripe. Which explains why I thought it was bleached out. Actually angry now, as I see I didn’t even receive what I paid for. Second photo with better light — you can see this is NOT a Rubin or ruby cryptanthus.]
