:Actually, there are a couple neoregelias that look like that too. Going by the size of the galacs, I really doubt that is a Vresia as going by the size of the galacs, the brom in question is a lot bigger than the verisea.

:My guess is Neoregelia 'pepper' or a similar hybrid... there are numerous hybrids that are spotted like that but 'pepper' tends to be the most popular in the trade.

I purchased both Neo. pepper and the Vresia racinae at the same time, but didn't keep track of the labels. This one is 6" in diameter and the older leaves turn back and curl. It hasn't grown much larger in a year. I took this photo tonight. It is one of my favorites and it's the only one in that tank the galacs like to sit in.
