Many Bromeliad plants are
epiphytic, they use otherplants and trees as supports but take
nonourishmentfrom them. Because
they have
evolved
in a manner that allows them to absorb moisture through
special cells
in their leaves,
they are able to inhabit
ahuge rangeofclimates.
For instance the Tillandsia
or airplants grow in the extremely dry and hot
climates of deserts but can also
withstand
cold and
even frosts.
On the other
hand; for Viresiasit is the more stablewarm
humid
jungles
of the
Amazon
that provide the idealclimate.
Bromeliads are
members of agreat
family of plants,
the best known to humans being
the edible pineapple.
Bromeliads
usually consist of arosette of strap
shaped
leaves that
often form a reservoir, which holds
water
fromthe centre
of which a colourful
inflorescence
emerges during the flower
phase
of their existence.
