bromeliaceae

I’ve never owned a Bromeliad before. I’ve often stopped at plant stores/florists to admire flowering bromeliads, but have never convinced myself to bring one home. Earlier this week, I arrived home to find two new bromeliads sitting near the kitchen bench, a random extemporaneous present from Kitty who had been plant shopping that day. One of the plants is about to flower, whilst the other has just finished flowering. The bummer about Bromeliads is they only flower once, but at least once they have flowered they then offspring (pups), which, when grown up, will flower themselves. A beautiful gift.

    bromeliads are amazing …love them…flora grubb uses them in her vertical gardens – also have good energy properties if you are into that sort of thing(apparently)…so tell me if life gets better and i might join you and buy one too
