Pitcairnia Obsession

Received quickly. Broms I ordered are good quality, and received in perfect shape.

Pitcairnia ‘Obsession’

I am very pleased with my plant. It arrived in good condition. I love the red coloration of the leaves, very beautiful !!

It’s early days. I soak all plants in distilled water for 24 hours to hydrate them rain water whe ever it’s available. Then I plant in moist media and wait till they get going.

Wilted bromeliad

My Pitciarnia obsession arrive with all the leaves curled in. I gave it a good watering and that didn’t help. I called Tropiflora and the woman told me to plant it in soil vs the orchid bark I planted it in. I did that and no change. See photo. I hope to get a new plant or a refund/ credit.
