It sure is gorgeous!

I really like Brom's, don't know why I don't grow more of them except the lack of space. My sister and Brother in Law in Fort Lauderdale have/had some gorgeous Brom's in their yard for a couple of years. I keep forgetting to ask if they are still there, my brother in law said they were tired of them and were going to throw them away ... a common practice at their house! They aren't into gardening and usually hire someone to change things out when they get tired of it. I was hoping they would wait until I could get down that way and take them off their hands! Someone ID'd them for me as Aechmea blanchetiana and I sure would love to have these babies! I've got to remember to ask my sister if they still have them. This photo was taken last Christmas.
