Nursery contributed plant descriptions

This terrestrial bromeliad hybrid shows brilliant red and purple coloring in mounds of 3-4" rosettes. Mounds can get pretty large! Nice cross between Dyckia Marnier-lapostollei and Deuterocohnia lorentziana. This is one of the first bigeneric hybrids between these two genera, dyckia and deuterocohnia.
