This bromeliad is somewhat unique in both its cascading growth habit and the compact size of its genera.  The species strobilacea is one of two commonly known in cultivation.  Strobilacea is not difficult to grow into an impressive sized hanging basket.  The bright red cones with their bright yellow tubular flowers appear at the end of long, terete leaves.  It sort of takes on a life and character of its own.

One seedling.
