Hi everyone,

Randg - I think your plant is a xCryptbergia, but as to which particular one I can't say.

You may be able to ID it by looking at the Photo Index on the FCBS site (http://fcbs.org/pictures.htm) or the Bromeliad Cultivar Register (http://botu07.bio.uu.nl/bcg/bcr/index.php)

I hope this helps a bit.

All the best, Nev.

Thank you Nev. I googled it, then looked at the FCBS site, and the picture look exactly like it. I think it's Cryptbergia x "Red Burst", and learned that Cryptbergia 'Red Burst' is a cross between a Cryptanthus and a Bilbergia which was fascinating. Thank you!
