This plant has become a superstar since its limited introduction a few years ago, finding a ready market at high prices at bromeliad conventions and shows. Now commonly used as a hardy landscape plant, it’s is a spectacular, large-growing plant with heavy reddish-brown bars across light green leaves. Large marginal spines line the wide, stiff leaves. A superior plant for hybridizing, Hannibal Lecter being an example.

It should be noted that this plant has no official botanical status. It was brought into cultivation by Chester Skotak after having found it in a Brazilian collection. Lacking a better description for now, it is being referred to as carcharodon cv. ‘Tiger’. The ‘real’ carcharodon is unknown and many not be in cultivation at all.

A small sized, colorful, stoloniferous hybrid, with green leaves that tint yellow with red tips, in strong light. The center blushes cherry red when in bloom and the plants form attractive clusters.

A smaller, stoloniferous species interesting to collectors and breeders alike. Starting as slender offsets, gradually growing wider in leaf until maturity. The yellowish leaf coloration becomes almost black at the base and in the cup. It has large white flowers and is a favorite of hybridists.

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.
