This early Skotak hybrid is a cultivar of ‘Fireball’ x ?. Unreported parentage. A small beauty almost the same size and shape of the ‘Fireball’ parent, with the same stoloniferous habit. A nicely variegated plant with reddish leaves in good light and light white to pinkish variegation.
The variegation is in the form of multiple thin stripes or lineations up the center of each leaf. It is a great plant for hanging baskets, for mounting and for use in terrariums.

A nice variegated hybrid by Chester Skotak, of as yet unreported parentage. Broad, recurved, green leaves have white variegation and develop a magenta colored veneer. The veneer makes this plant stand out in any collection. The leaf edges are covered with soft spines.

This is a stunning hybrid from Grant Groves. A beautiful electric pink plant, with some green streaking as the plants matures. This green striping is not variegation, but just a color pattern. If you want something colorful, this is the plant for you.
I can spend hours at Tropiflora. Their selection of bromeliads are breathtaking. The staff is very knowledgeable and guided me to the shade loving varieties. There so many it was easy to find one that I knew would make a perfect gift and at a very reasonable price. I will return again I'm sure.

One fantastic plant! This is a cross of Neo ‘Royal Burgundy‘ with Sincoraea navioides, made by Herb Hill. A mature plant can reach over 30 inches across with dozens of deep-burgundy leaves in a dense rosette. One of the best-ever xSincoregelias. Can adapt to full sun and makes a great landscape plant.

This outstanding Skotak hybrid is a cultivar of [(carolinae x concentrica) x ‘Royal Burgundy’] x ‘Royal Burgundy’. A red hot beauty with a reddish-burgundy overall color and darker medio-picta variegation. The variegation blushes a vivid, even brilliant red, giving the plant a glowing look. Beautiful, a must-have for your collection.
Absolutely great selection of plants, good and loving advice on the care for all the plants that are for sale. Thank you!

A lovely plant introduced by Bullis some years ago but without breeder or cross information. It may be a cultivar of chlorosticta x ‘Fireball’; but it is not known for sure. A smaller grower to about 12 inches across, with multi-colored leaves that are blotched, banded and speckled with shades of yellow and green over a red background. With maturity the center develops whitish blotches on the leaves and in the center. A choice, colorful plant that is a favorite of hybridizers.

A colorful, upright growing hybrid of unreported parentage. A smallish plant to only about ten inches across with leaves of 1.25 inches wide in an upright rosette. Brightly colored red with chartreuse spots and bands over fully 50% of the plant. Leaves have a thick texture and are quite stiff. Although we do not know the parentage, it looks to us like it may have ‘Hannibal Lector’ in its background.

One of Grant Groves’ famous neon-Neos, noted for high coloration in relatively low light. This one is vivid light pink over more than half the leaf surface. The leaves have a soft texture with small spines. Best color in bright, indirect light, definitely not suited for direct sun.
I received my Cotton Candy today. It was very carefully and perfectly packaged by Tropiflora so that it arrived in perfect condition! I opened it and all I can say is WOW!. A real beauty of a plant and a great addition to my plant family!!!! Thank you, Tropiflora!
I could not be more pleased with the whole process of ordering plants online and having them shipped. The plants were lovingly wrapped and arrived in perfect condition. I can’t imagine healthier plants. I think they piced plants better than I would have selected! I can’t be more pleased and my wife loves her early Christmas gift!
