This new hybrid by Nat Deleon is spectacular. The close-up of the inflorescence is on the cover , it is a rainbow of color. It is a clump of three along with 2 pups. It was being

auctioned off at the South Florida Bromeliad Society Show and Sale. He previewed several, one more spectacular then the other. I took pictures of them which I will feature on the cover for the next few months. Nat will be doing a program for us in September ; I sure hope he brings some of these to show off!!!
