All are growing in full sun conditions.


Now in flower I find the white leaf tip on inner leaves interesting.

Scott those white tips are interesting.

If your NOID gift Neo looks like some kind of Skotak. Nice gift. Very similar to my 'Aventura'. BCR has better pics of it, mine is losing the intense red now that tree leaves are shading it again. Still not quite the same markings, although hard to tell with young Neos, they sure change as they mature.

Noticed today the mother plant now has the beginnings of 2 additional pups on her deathbed.

@elgecko. Very nice, one of my favorites, they seem to be one of the better bromeliads for indoor growing.

Kit Kat is a cute little bromeliad.

This is Billbergia 'Smokestack', almost missed this bloom while on vaca.
