Thanks to Tim Waters for correctly identifying this one as a
Bromeliad/Guzmania AKA "Lava Plant": http://home.earthlink.net/~w6zno/RedFlower.jpg How about this one? http://users.rcn.com/murrayallon/NYCPlant.jpg It grows in New York City beside the Bryant Park library and loves hot humid summers. -- Gnarlie |

The showy red parts are merely colored bracts or leaves. The true flowers will either be borne down in the center or on a long stalk stuck out of the center. M. Reed |

Very easy plant, no special needs, sometimes makes flowers, which has also specific scent. It can have a very large leaves which can be gorgious, lower leaves which lose it's beauty freely cut, cause new and nicer are coming from center |
Oh come on, dude.
Try making a modicum of effort on your own. You can find them yourself in any "houseplant" book, you lazy fool. They are neither rare nor difficult to ID. "Gnarlodious" wrote in message ...
