Alcantarea  Imperialis Rubra     backHomenext



 

The Alcantatea Imperialis Rubra is one of the "Giant" bromeliads because it can grow to 5' across and the thick flower spike can reach 7' given the right conditions. It has hundreds of small white fragrant flowers. It will take years for this to happen, but it's so imposing that it looks grand until then anyway! The wide leaves are a blueish green color on top with a silvery cast and the underleaf is a beautiful maroon color. They do well in full sun or partial shade. It originates in Brazil and can handle a wide range of temps. This is a great stand alone specimen or centerpiece. This auction is for robust plant that is 25" across. It is like the one pictured last.

$59.99

If purchasing multiple plants, a shipping discount will be configured on your final invoice. This time of year we ship all plants well insulated, but be sure to arrange for your package to not be exposed to the elements for an extended period of time.

 At the present time we only ship within the U.S.

Plants make great gifts! I will be glad to wrap your plant in festive paper, include a card, and ship directly to the recipient at no extra cost to you. 

Also if you're in the So. Florida area, the Bromeliad Society of Broward County meets the 3rd. Monday of every month at the Jim Ward Community Center at 301 N.W. 46 Ave. in Plantation at 7:30.
