I love  Aechmea Surprise. The stripes are very dramatic. The bloom is a STRONG flower spike in size and color and contrasts the silvery foliage. It is a bright salmon color with orange and yellow flowers, and lasts for months! The foliage gets even more contrast with black and white markings when grown in the sun.  This sale is for a plant with a pup like the one in the last picture, except it's in bloom! 

 If you'd like a shipping discount when purchasing multiple plants, please ask me to send you an adjusted invoice reflecting a shipping discount, before you pay. Because of new shipping size regulations by the U.S. Post Office, we're now offering parcel post shipping to keep prices down. We always attempt to get plants in the mail as soon as possible after payment. They will be in transit longer, but luckily bromeliads are so tough that we don't anticipate any problems. Of course you may still pay for faster shipping if you desire.

Be sure to add me to your favorites list! 
 Plants make great gifts! I will be glad to wrap your plant in festive paper, include a card, and ship directly to the recipient at no extra cost to you. Visit My eBay Store: The Nature Collection
