GROWN IN FULL COASTAL SUN – MASSIVE 15 GALLON CLUMP
FOR SOMEONE WHO WANTS AN IMMEDIATE “SHOW”
This suckering Neorogelia red throat species has been growing in our full sun. It has been growing outdoors for years and receives good sun. It has an estimated twenty heads of leaves (plants) that had a prominent rred color to their central leaves. We have several of these available. It’s in a 15 gallon pot and is very large and full of individual plants. The blossoms are inside the individual cups formed by the leaves and small blue glowers. But, the inner part of each blossom plant are lipstick red. These are very showy plants. Compared to the Aechmea shown above, these plants are about half the mature height and closer to the ground. They do want their leaf cups to have water – which means overhead water (easy with a hose or sprayer system). Many of the colorful Neorogelia like shade or filtered light but this species tolerates Coastal sun. If you like such large specimen Bromeliads, we have an assortment of older plants with multiple heads and blossoms. They are landscape ready. The garden photos show usage of Bromeliads in the garden.
