Billbergia nutans, commonly called "Queen's Tears" due to the royal blue and chartreuse green flower petals which often have visible drops of hanging 'tear drops' of nectar. It is also called the "Friendship plant" due to its vigorous clumping growth which is easily dividable to share with a friend, old or new.
Called the Friendship Plant because they are easy to grow, easy to divide and easy to share. Bilbergia nutans, Queen's Tears, is a fast growing , clumping bromeliad that sports delightful flowers in brilliant hues of greens, pinks and blues.
Nutans is Latin for 'nodding', referring to the nodding jewel like flowers suspended from narrow tubular rosettes up to 2' above the plant. A prolific grower that grows side pups rapidly after the long lasting blooms fade, creating a dense cluster.
Beautiful as a container plant, in hanging baskets, grown in trees, in rock gardens or as a houseplant. The long slender deep green leaves prefer filtered light and a little humidity. The plant is cold hardy for brief periods, surviving upper 20's.
The long lasting blooms make from a spectacular specimen plant show.
