This is in response to a couple of questions I’ve gotten about bromeliad flowers turning brown. Should the flower be left on? Will it bloom again off that same stalk? Should it be cut completely off?

In the case of bromeliads, it’s actually the inflorescence which provides the color. The flowers are small. Most plants will repeat bloom, some throughout the season & some every year, but that’s not the case with bromeliads. The mother plant blooms, the flower dies, pups (babies) form at the base of the mother & a part of the plant lives on. It’s all part of the natural life cycle of a bromeliad.
The guzmania, which you see me pruning the flower off of in the video, was the 1st one to turn totally brown. My aechmea flower is just showing a bit of brown in the center & the vriesea stalk has turned from vibrant orange to dark green. The quill of the pink quill plant has now turned lime green & the neoregelia looks great even though the tiny flowers inside the vase or urn (the central cup) have long died.
If you’d like, cut off the flower inflorescence & the entire stalk when it 1st starts turns brown if it’s bothering you. The plant won’t suddenly die after cutting it off. That takes a while & the mother will look good for quite some time after. I let the guzmania flower go totally brown for the sake of the video.
