Ken,
I will see what these pups look like when they open. The pups looks pink now. I will take another pic and see if I can get a better pic with one of my other cameras. It could not be light that made them pink because they have them on the bottom shelf and there is very little light in the back of the store where they keep their houseplants.
Planto, I have never seen dead plants on their sale rack. That is why I thought you meant they sold them so cheap.
My Lowes mark them down if they do not look perfect. I think this Bromelaid they thought the pups did not make the plant look perfect. You can see the tips of some of the pups between the leaves. Some they markdown when people take pieces of the plant. You can see where people walked by and broke a piece off the plant. That is usually their hanging plants.
