Aechmea Blue Tango
Armando,
Lovely! At first glance it reminds me of the bloom on Passiflora incarnata (passion fruit vine).
Shirley
That's a very nice one!
Wow! That's beautiful!
Armando, How big does that one grow???
Thanks
MsC

Very beautiful Bromeliad you have there~!!!
I'll add a photo of what I have.
Barry,
Yours is pretty also. Very unique, both of them
Hey guys. This is my first post. Just joined Davesgarden last week. Here is a pick of my Blue Tangos.
Gorgeous plant all!!! Wowzers!!! (HI Shirley!!!)
Soundwave - nice diversified grouping there!!!
Regarding the Bromiliad 'Blue Tango', for the past couple months here in Wisconsin it is freezing outdoors so I brought my 'Blue Tango' inside so it won't freeze. It of course lost the pretty flower bract and now there are about 4 smaller pups growing on the side of the main Bromiliad.
Do I leave these alone until this coming spring were it becomes warmer outside for me to relocate the pot outdoors? If anyone could inform me, Thanks much~!!
BARRYSEWALL,
Don't separate the pups until they have at least six (6) leaves each,
by then they should have some individual roots.
Separate them with a serrate knife ,real close to mother plant, and
pot them individually . Good luck.
Armando
Hey soundwave, love your grouping! I have all those plants except the Blue tango! Mmmm, where can I get me one of those?
