Re: Happy Birthday/now bromelaid

Thanks Andrea.  Humidity is NO problem here in the lake area.  Even
during a 6 month drought, it's STILL humid.  Welcome to blackspot
country.  But I have the perfect place on the front porch for it
(morning sun only, shade by 11).  And yes, the leaves are green but
has a little reddish cup-like structure in the middle.  Interesting
plant.  How big so they get?
