Identification: Solved
- Identification: Uwe (2014-08-05) =1+2: A. angustifolia, 3: A. mexicana
(Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl) - Note (11726): Peter Tristram (2014-08-05) - Thanks Uwe, both my initial thoughts too though the angustifolia is very different looking to what we know as it here and I didn't know mexicana grows in Colombia but I suppose if it grows in Panama and Ecuador then likely Colombia too! We saw angustifolia-looking plants in a few other locations but not as big as this form. (Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
- Identification (11726): Eric Gouda (2014-08-05) =Aechmea angustifolia
- I agree with Uwe, this is Aechmea angustifolia and the third image does not fit here, so that is why it has been split from these two
