SIZESoffset- May or may not have root and is at least 1/3 of the mature size. mature- Has some root and coming into color but not yet in bloom. LIFECYCLE Most Aechmea have a 3-5 year lifespan from an offset. Once mature, they soon enter the blooming stage and produce new offsets. After the blooming stage, they usually live another 12 months then die. They all produce very colorful blooms that extend out of the plant and typically last 1-2 months. TAMAÑOS offset-Puede o no tener raíz, y es por lo menos 1/3 del tamaño adulto. mature-tiene algo de la raíz y la entrada en color, pero todavía sin florecer. CICLO DE VIDA La mayoría tienen un Neoregelia 2-3 años de vida útil de un desplazamiento. Una vez maduros, pronto entrará en la fase floración y producción de nuevas compensaciones. Después de la etapa de floración, viven otro 6-12 meses después mueren. Sus flores no son muy muestra, sólo un pequeño mechón de flores de color púrpura dentro de la "taza" de la planta. TAILLES offset- Le rejet peut avoir ou non des racines et aura au moins un tiers de la taille d’une plante à maturité. mature- La plante a des racines et est en train de prendre sa couleur définitive, mais ne fleurit pas encore. CYCLE DE VIE Partant d’un rejet, la plupart des Aechmea ont une durée de vie de 3-5 ans. Une fois arrivés au stade de maturité, ils ne vont pas tarder à fleurir et produire de nouveaux rejets. Après la floraison, ils vivent encore environ 12 mois avant de mourir. Tous produisent des fleurs très colorées qui se dressent au dessus de la plante et tiennent normalement 1-2 mois. GRÖSSEN offset- Kindel können, müssen aber keine Wurzeln haben und haben mindestens ein Drittel der ausgewachsenen Größe. mature- Ausgewachsene Pflanzen haben einige Wurzeln und sind dabei sich auszufärben, aber blühen noch nicht. Lebenszyklus Von einem Kindel ausgehend, haben die meisten Aechmea eine Lebensdauer von 3-5 Jahren. Einmal ausgewachsen, beginnen sie bald zu blühen und produzieren neue Kindel. Nach der Blüte leben sie noch etwa 12 Monate bevor sie sterben. Alle bringen sehr farbenfrohe Blüten hervor, die aus der Pflanze ragen und gewöhnlich 1-2 Monate halten.

Aechmea
'Alvarez' (variegated Aec. ludemanniana)
Full sun to shade;
Mature Size: 20in H x 24in W
This plant reportedly takes full sun, but we prefer to give it a little
bit of protection. It's red leaves are hard to beat and it doesn't
get overly large making it ideal for smaller planters. The bloom
is a small cluster of white flower buds with purple flowers on the tips-
it lasts for a couple months.
 
*NEW*Aechmea ampla
Full sun to shade;
Mature Size: 30in H x 24in W

in very dry conditions. The leaves seem to get more red when the
plant is stressed out. The tips of the leaves are pointy, so watch
out!

'Black on Black'
Filtered sun to shade;
Mature Size: 16in H x 12in W
A very peculiar, yet beautiful plant, this Aechmea works well in lighter
planter beds where its dark leaves can contrast with the mulch or
foliage around it. It produces lots of pups and has a showy yellow
and red bloom that is similar to Aechmea nudicaulis.
Aechmea
blanchetiana
Full sun to filtered
sun; Mature Size: 36in H x 36in W
A staple in landscaping for several years now, this bromeliad is
probably one of the most common in the world. It produces a large
orange bloom that lasts 3-4 months and is one of the few bromeliads to
adapt to full sun, even in South Florida and Texas.
*NEW* Aechmea
blanchetiana 'Orange Aid'*

sun; Mature Size: 36in H x 36in W
Similar to the
standard Aec. blanchetiana, this one has a deeper orange color and is
able to maintain it even in filtered or half-day sun! The leaves
are usually about 4-5 inches wide and tend to bend downward.
*Limited*
*NEW* Aechmea
blanchetiana 'Raspberry'
Half-day sun; Mature Size: 36in H x 36in W
Another cultivar of the common Aec. blanchetiana, this one also
maintains deep orange leaves but needs a full sun position to
maintain the color. The leaves are more slender and tend
to be stiff and upright.
 
Aechmea blanchetiana
'Rainbow'
Full to half-day sun; Mature Size: 36in H x
40in W

leaves. It becomes quite orange in full sun and tends to
have a nice, neat rosette. It produces prolific suckers
(pups).
Aechmea
blanchetiana 'Rubra'
Half-day sun; Mature Size: 36in H x 36in W
Probably the darkest red of all of our cultivars, this is a
hybrid possibly with some Aec. mulfordii or Aec. rubens blood in
it. It needs 1/2 day sun in order to maintain its stark
color which it develops at a young age.
