Neoregelia x correia-araujoi albomarginated
6913
An uncommon plant that is not yet widely represented in collections, Neoregelia x correiaaraujoi albomarginated is an enigmatic species considered by some to be a natural hybrid of Neo. johannis and marmorata. It is, however, listed in the binomials and is still an ‘official’ species.
A large growing plant from the southern regions of the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, the rosette can be nearly 4 feet across with leaves 6 inches wide, light green with red mottling, pale above, stronger below, and red leaf tips. In bright light or even full sun it becomes much more compact.
Our clone is a albomarginated, with a wide creamy white stripe up the leaf margins.
*VIPP plants are Offsets
Delivered in perfect condition. Unusual and already a large plant at a diameter of 14". Will be perfect for NE FL since it is from coastal Brazil.

This nice cross by Lisa Vinzant is a cultivar of Neoregelia chlorosticta ‘Marble Throat’ x Sincoraea (formerly Orthophytum) navioides. Of a size rather typical of many xSincoregelias, about 20 inches across or so with many narrow, stiff leaves in a very leafy rosette. The leaves are lime green and tint pinkish in strong light. At anthesis the center leaves blush deep fuchsia pink out the nearly the leaf tips. Flowers are light lavender in a nidular inflorescence.
