Deuterocohnia Bromeliad Plant

Deuterocohnia (doo-ter-o-co’nee-a) Belonging to the Pitcairnioideae subfamily; there are approximately eight species discovered and few in cultivation.

They are drought resistant and found growing in adverse conditions on the rocky slopes of the Andean range. Deuterocohnia meziana is unique among bromeliads as its 1.8 m inflorescence continues to flower from the same scape for six to eight years!
