neoregelianeoregelia
genusgenusStriking tropical plants that form rosettes of colorful leaves, which often display vibrant patterns and create a natural water reservoir in their center. The most dramatic color display occurs during blooming, when the central leaves transform into brilliant hues.
Etymology
The name combines 'neo' meaning 'new' and 'regelia,' honoring Eduard August von Regel, a 19th-century Russian botanist, literally meaning 'new Regelia.'
Interesting fact!
Unlike most flowering plants, the showy colors come primarily from the leaves rather than the flowers, which are typically small and nestled deep within the center of the plant.
