An exceptional cultivar of this species with leaves bearing intense silver banding over deep green. The narrow banding covers both sides of the leaves and is much brighter than in most other clones. A rare and desirable collector’s item.
This plant is sooo incredibly Beautiful. Black and silver
on the outside of the leaves and a pretty green and silver on the inside of leaves. The form is Lovely. So very pleased. Many Thanks, Bobbie.

A spectacular robust form of chantinii is green with silver banding and has bold creamy white stripes up the center of each leaf. The inflorescence has yellowish branches with bright orange-red bracts. A sensational plant.
I look for good roots on every plant , but the chantinii especially , this was well done in the fine coconut coir

A mound forming miniature lithophytic or terrestrial species from Bolivia and Argentina. Formerly known as Abromeitiella lorentziana, the plant is a mounding species which forms many ‘heads’, each about two inches across. The leaves are stiff and thickly succulent, acutely triangular and very sharply pointed. Normally green in cultivation, it may blush a gray to rusty red in full sun. The flower is without a scape and is deep green. Easy to grow in well-drained soil in bright light to full sun.
I collect lots of plants and this is one of my favorite shops. Always fast shipping, healthy beautiful plants.

A hybrid from Frank Hejtnanek of unknown parentage.  Burgundy brown triangular leaves with heavy white scurf that are about 5 or 6 inches long, triangular, slightly curving white spines. A stunning plant in every way.
A 2010 Skotak release is a cultivar of [(carolinae variegated x Hannibal Lector) x ‘Norman Bates’] x ‘Joao Marcio’. A nice compact grower with albomarginated leaves. Colors are crisp; green and white with good red bars and bands. Has a good shape, sort of ampoule like, with inch-wide leaves in an upright rosette to about 8 inches across. The plant takes on an overall red flush with maturity with a brighter red color at anthesis.
A medium sized hybrid by Lisa Vinzant is a cultivar of Neoregelia ‘Punctate Red’ x pascoliana. An upright grower in funnel shape, apple green with strong red banding below and slightly less above. The red banding tends to merge towards the base, especially in older plants, and it develops an overall gray wash on the leaf undersides. Leaves are moderately stiff with medium spines on the margins.
A miniature hybrid from Vinzant is a cultivar of ‘Screaming Tiger’ x ‘Doodlebug’. The plant is vase shaped with a slightly flaring top. The color is a deep chocolate burgundy with yellow banding, with the leaf axils almost solid yellow. The banding seems to be in the middle portion of the plant. There is no color change at anthesis. Offsets before anthesis, with offsets on stolons.
A nice small hybrid from Lisa Vinzant. A loose rosette of green leaves that turn orangish. As the plant matures, the plant develops brick red crossbands. Anthesis color is bright red.
A hybrid of (lilliputiana x ‘Blushing Tiger’) by Michael Kiehl. This is a great little miniature that looks like a mini ‘Blushing Tiger’. Good for terrariums and its stoloniferous habit makes it a nice choice for a hanging pot.
