    My mum gave me this plant some years ago. This year it started to flower and I think it is beautiful. It flowered in June and December each time 2 flowers.

    However I don't know its name and caring for it is a bit hit and miss. Many thanks.

    Billbergia; possibly B. nutans.

    The blooms are like Bilbergia nutans, but the leaves are different. Bilbergia __ ?

    I believe it could be Billbergia 'Windii' (or B. windii).
