Bromeliad

Fascicularia bicolour

(Bromeliad)
  • Unusual addition for rockeries and containers
  • Metallic blue flowers
  • Rosettes of silver-green and scarlet red leaves
This eye-catching exotic Bromeliad makes an extraordinary sight in rockeries, alpine gardens and containers. Fascicularia forms spiky rosettes of linear, silver-green and scarlet red leaves with a central boss of astonishing metallic blue flowers. Surprisingly, this Chilean native is hardy to -10C (14F) when grown in very free draining soils, but will appreciate cloche protection during winter as it resents cold, wet conditions. Alternatively, grow Fascicularia bicolour in a pot that can be moved to a dry, frost free position over winter. Supplied in 13cm pot. Height: 40cm (16"). Spread: 60cm (24"). More info
