                            Pinalia shiuyingiana is a slow-growing, clumping bromeliad that can be propagated from offsets. The offsets should be carefully removed from the parent plant and potted in a well-draining soil mix. The soil should be kept moist but not soggy. Place the plant in a warm, sunny location and fertilize regularly with a balanced fertilizer.
