| The unusual banding of this plant caught my eye...then I checked the tag, & found it was called Neotanthus 'Waffle'. A quick check on FCBS told me the plant is a bigeneric of Neoregelia & Cryptanthus, made by Foster. The FCBS photo looks a bit different, so I thought I would post pic's of this plant, ask if anyone else is growing it, & if so please post pic's. It would be interesting to see how it looks in other growing conditions.

| I grow a similar looking plant, xNeotanthus 'Firefoam'. I have mine under some trees but it does get a decent amount of sun in the winter but very little in the summer.

| Hi devo and Bromadams, I really like the banding. What is the flower like? All the best, Nev. |

| The bromdex shows some boring neo like flowers. Mine hasn't flowered yet. |

| Hi all - I also grow this Bi-generic as Neotanthus and It has white flowers similar to the cryptanthus parent. Cheers Richard |
