Tank Bromeliad |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Many bromeliads are epiphytic—that is, they grow upon other plants and collect nutrients and moisture from the air. Epiphytes have no true roots, but use rootlike structures to grasp onto a growing surface, such as a tree limb or trunk. Many epiphytic bromeliads such as the tank bromeliad are prized for their attractive appearance. | ||||||
