ID Bromeliad please


Here are a few shots my bromeliad, in progression of color as this may help you identify what variety I have.



Here's a pic of soon to be blooms.


As it starts it's bloom, the bromeliad turns hot pink in color.


Hope this helps in an ID please.

It is a Neoregelia (nee-o-ree-jeel’ya), a very large group of Broms. It could be any one of hundreds of hybrids that are in this family.
Here is a website where you could see what kind it is if you are wanting a name to it.

Thanks for the link mr. Whew, I just went thru many many bromeliads and I think I ID'd it. It appears to be Neoregelia magdalenae.

Thanks so much!
