Fascicularia bicolor

Stunning and seldom offered Chilean Bromeliad forms a 2-3’ symmetrical rosette with stiff, grassy, arching pointed leaves. On mature plants in late summer to early fall, centers become infused with scarlet and surround a dome of brilliant blue blossoms decorated with yellow anthers that resemble tiny golden stars. Definitely a ‘waz that plant’! Sun in cool areas, bright shade elsewhere, well-drained soil, regular moisture but drought tolerant as well. Nice potted specimen or stump garden darling.
