BROMELIADS
x Vriecantarea 'Julietta'
8774
A giant grower from hybridizer David Fell in Hawaii. This plant is registered as an xVriecantarea but David lists it’s parents as (‘Volcano’s Mist’ x ‘Volcano’s Mist’). ‘Volcano’s Mist’ is an Alcantarea. So, we are confused, where does the Vriesea come in? We are keeping the xVrecantarea name though as that is how the plant was registered with the BSI Cultivar Registrar.
It looks like a nice clone of Alcantarea imperialis with a leafy rosette of broad leaves, red with a veneer of silver in older plants. Highly decorative, it is popular with landscapers.

Neoregelia 'Zoe'
3024
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.
Neoregelia 'Magali'
7219
One of Grant Groves finest hybrids. A large, robust plant with especially broad leaves in a 24 inch rosette that blushes a bright red with maturity, regardless of blooming.
Neoregelia 'Wolfgang'
9194
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.
I usually don’t purchase full grown neos but, I just wanted something spectacular to keep inside for awhile. This is perfect. I have very bright and large second floor east facing window . Just looks fabulous . I hope it pups!
Neoregelia 'Donna'
6481
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.

Bold white margins contrast with deep green leaves that blush reddish in strong light. At anthesis the center flushes deep red. Widely popular in landscape use in central and southern Florida.
x Sincoregelia 'Burgundy Hill'
3297
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.

Neoregelia 'Pemiento'
809
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!
Neoregelia 'Gespacho'
536
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.

Neoregelia 'Guacamole' (P)
8753
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.
