A very beautiful flower that I received as a gift at the beginning of the month, it bloomed.
The flower is called Pink quill (Tillandsia Cyanea) It was brought from the rainforests of Ecuador. Tillandsia Cyanea produces a large, fan-shaped inflorescence covered with purple-blue flowers. What I find sad is that this flower blooms once in a lifetime. The flower appears when the plant is 2, 3 years old. It lasts quite a long time, but after the inflorescence dies, the plant starts to wither. We can say it lives to bloom, then it dies!

It seems them more beautiful a flower is, the shorter the lifespan is. Stunning velvet colors.
It’s really a pity that such a beautiful flower only blooms 1x and then dies, my friend
