I bought this as a multi-plant pot of Neoregelia from 'Boggy Creek Nursery.
The peachy leaf
tone that was evident even on the smallest offsets caught my eye. No tag though. It was
thought to be called "Something Blush or Glow" but the name eluded.
Allowing a standard
'Imperfecta' clone to grow from a residual nub (after all leaves and other
clones removed) I got an non-variegated plant that looks very much the same. I'll take the next
generation and grow both under identical conditions and see. If as suspected this
will be named 'Imperfecta Novar'.
Personally I like the plant just due to it's long lived color tone. But then
again when room becomes an issue my unnamed ones will go to the wayside (next
to the brush pile).
Anyone with knowledge, thoughts, or guesses on the name/origin on this medium
sized bromeliad?
