Abstract

A Bromeliad plant of the Guzmania type which presents a general lemon yellow overall blush, rather than definite yellow of specific parts and the color in the bracts lasts for up to three months.

Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.

I claim: 1. A new and distinct variety of Bromeliad plant substantially as shown and described, characterized particularly as to novelty by the floral bracts wherein the color grades from strong reddish orange at the base of inflorescence to brilliant yellow, and the color blends somewhat into the mass of the plant rather than rising above it, the bracts being essentially bicolored which is unusual in Bromeliads.
