OK, it's only Thursday, but it's the 31st, and I'd probably not get a chance tomorrow. Those of you with good memories may recall that TPP has showed you this flower before (here) and maybe else where too. And for good reason. It's a real fabulous flower, and it just makes you feel good when this semi-scraggy bromeliad flowers. Now this year TPP repotted the plant because there was no soil, or orchidy growing mixture at all, just rhizomes. Gave away a rather large cluster of shoots, or two, and replanted the rest. New basket and replanted plant (Billbergia nutans) probably weighs 30-40 pounds without being soaked with water. And of course TPP wanted to play with his new iPhone macro lens some more. And so here it is. Isn't that a great combination of colors. The blue eye-liner petals are the niftiest thing.
