Bromeliads

Although our selection of terrestrial bromeliads are not strictly epiphytes, our little collection of rare South American plants offers you a range of unusual leaf forms and vibrant flashes of exotic colour. Some are very happy in a pot, and some are hardier than others. Puya alpestris (a pineapple relative), Astelia nervosa and Fascicularia bicolor are particular favourites – the latter having successfully taken root and grown up a tree at Nuthurst.
