Need ID and have question regarding planting outdoors

13 years ago

I posted this question in the "Gallary" area b/c the Discussion area wouldn't let me post pictures, but realized that the "Gallary" area doesn't get a lot of action. Could someone help me ID my two new broms and let me know if they will be ok to plant outside in Zone 9a (Manatee County, FL). Here is the link to the pictures and original post:

These are my first broms and I'm a complete newbie on this. Thanks.

Those are Neoregelias, very easy plants to grow. Mine grow well outside in the ground here in CA z9a/b. No direct sun, not too wet or dry and no fertilizer. Planted under some canopy of palms or trees would do them well.
