PATSP is a long-winded, intermittently humorous blog which is mostly about houseplants, particularly Anthuriums and Schlumbergeras.
It's actually a little weird how identical all Neoregelia flowers turn out to be. Both pictures below can be enlarged to ridiculous proportions if opened in a new window.
This does clarify pretty well how the taxonomists can be so certain that 'Gazpacho,' 'Nuance' and 'Fireball' all belong in the same genus, though. The flowers look pretty much interchangeable.
