DEBBIE SWARTZ - Vriesa splenriete (this is more likely the variety than chantrieri;see http://www.silvervase.com/sv-brmld.htm
Bloom Lasts: 10-14 weeks Light: low. The Vriesia will benefit from the filtered shade you have available; the
leaves are sensitive and this one has a few marks from where the new angle of the sun changed it's light. However it's a
healty plant and you can trim those off when it gets there if you wish or when it has thrown some new leaves.
