Once in a Lifetime

 

 

 

Our bromeliad plant finally bloomed. We got it as a housewarming gift over four years ago and we have patiently waited since then to see what its flower would look like. Bromeliads and pineapples are part of the same plant family and they only bloom once in their lifetime. Our bromeliad came in a pot with three others and within a couple of weeks of this bloom, the plant next to it also bloomed. I'll definitely be sad when the other two plants have given up their blooms, but hey, there's a pineapple plant sitting not far away and it's still got a once in a lifetime ahead of it.
