Bromeliad (vriesea vulcana)

My first Bromeliad.
I think that it's Vriesea Vulcana. Small plant of only seven inches.
And yes, it really is that dark coloured!

It's the smallest one that I've seen. I just bought it because the colour is so unusual!

It's very beautiful! If you like bromeliads you should check out some of my pics. I went to a garden party a couple of years ago here in San Diego...the owners the whole property planted with bromeliads and tillandsias. It was incredible!

Delonix - it was an impulse buy for a couple of quid! If it wasn't for the colour I wouldn't have noticed it!
I'll check them out later - are they tagged Bromeliad?

I think I'm going to re-post the pics. The pics were taken 2 years ago.
