BROMELIADS

Aechmea blanchetiana

Tillandsia 'creation'

Bromeliads grown at Coucals

Bromeliad Growing Hints

Some need shade and some need sun; consider their requirements for light.

Grow on trees, on logs or rocks or in mulch as most are epiphytes.

They do not like water at their root base and in their 'vase'

Once they flower the 'mother' plant will produce 'pups'

Only remove the 'pups' once they are more than one third the size of the mother plant.

I leave the mother plant die in the clump.
