Neoregelia rosea - subgenus Hylaeaicum. Normally a compact
stiff-leaved roseate this bromeliad can get leggy with some fertilizers. Personally
I like it draping, but it does not make for a show plant when not grown true to
form. A couple of years ago I saw a large cluster grown to form at the Sarasota
Show that was a ribbon winner.
