Add Note: Dutch Vandervort (2010-05-21) - it may be a fuzzy photograph but I recall that vernicosa means, brilliantly shiny, varnish like and I do not see that here. Maybe hibrid?
Add Note: Eric Gouda (2010-05-25) - This a known wild form of T.vernicosa all right and varnished it is.
Bromeliaceae literature has a bad name in what is written and what is meant :-) but here it is right. (Sent: brom-l@nic.surfnet.nl)
