Are you sure they are coming from that plant as it doesn't pup like that.

I'm 99% sure they're from that plant as none of the other broms around it would pup like that either, but I'll pull the pot out of the garden and take a better photo of the plant on its own tomorrow.

Yep, my nidularium thinks it's an octopus! Unless it's not a nidularium after all???

It does look a bit tall and scraggly like it's reaching for more light but it's kept under shadecloth which most of my broms need to avoid frying in the hot SE QLD sun.

Well, it turns out it's not a bromeliad after all - it looks more like a variegated form of Callisia fragrans. Interesting!

I think I'll take it out of the brom garden and put it in a hanging basket :)
