Bromeliad seeds


Hi all-

I have a purple/green bromeliad (the purple and green are in 1" or so 
horizontal strips on the leaves) - I cannot find the botanical at the moment 
but will continue to try to find.  Anyway - back in the spring this bromeliad 
gave me the most wonderful bloom....when the bloom faded I neglected to cut 
off the bloom spike.  This morning while watering I noticed that the bloom 
spike had "exploded" with feathering little seeds.  Since the bromeliad is in 
a protected spot the seeds were still attached.  Does anyone have any 
suggestions/information/experience on the germination of bromeliad seeds?  
And does anyone know if they will be true?

Thanks in advance
