Bought this plant at Farmers Market last week . . .


I can't remember what the guy called it.  He said it is not a cactus but has similarities.  The pinkish/purple "flower"will fade away and a new one take its place. . .

  2. It's very pretty, I think it may be some kind of Bromeliad.

  3. That was a very special one - almost like a sea shell placed among the leaves. I have never seen something like it.

  7. Catching up with you, Paulie - are you feeling better? That is a Bromalaid - pretty no-fuss and the flowers are gorgeous.
