Billbergia- Queen's Tears
Queen’s Tears bromeliads are one of the absolute easiest, low maintenance house plants available. They produce vibrant, pendulous purple and fuchsia flowers every few weeks. Each ‘rosette’ of leaves will flower only one time, and then produce offshoot plants- called pups- and each pup will follow the trend of flowering once, then making more offshoots. In short time these plants can grow massive, and because they have shallow root systems, they can really crowd in a pot making for a very attractive lush planting. In bright light their leaves will turn red; less sun will keep them a nice deep green color.
Note; the leaves are somewhat sharp and serrated, so it is best to keep out of reach of children.
