Billbergia sanderiana stiff leaves The color is deep redBillbergia sanderiana Some Bills have fantastic colors and some have great shapes. This one has an interesting form, somewhat thickly vase shaped, with wide leaves and heavy black spines. Mostly of a solid light green color, it produces a rather magnificent pendant inflorescence. Large showy pink bracts and branches of green striped flowers make a wonderful, if short lived, show. *VIPP plants are Offsets
