Orange Guzmania Bromeliad

Bromeliads are related to pineapples, but that’s not even the most interesting thing about these tropical houseplants. Tall, narrow leaves grow in a rosette formation and gently arch, creating a graceful bunch of foliage. These plants bloom with flower clusters known as an inflorescence, but the flowers are subtle and not flashy. The foliage around the flowers turns rich hues, which catches the eye. The Orange Guzmania Bromeliad boasts lovely orange plumes of foliage at the top of the plant.rBest Locations For Growing Orange Guzmania BromeliadrThe Orange Guzmania Bromeliad is pet friendly, allowing for flexible placement options around the home.
