Neoregelia 'Laelia' vipp 3-19 Much more robust than theA very nice hybrid by Rafael DeFaria in Rio. This cross of cruenta x carolinae, of one clone or another, is a large grower to at least 30 inches. The glossy leaves are fairly stiff, fairly broad, with red tips and bold albomargination. A red glaze over the leaf surface has 'holes' showing the green base color and appear as spots. A cheerfully colorful plant that will most likely adapt to full sun.
