Bromeliads are members of a plant family called Bromeliaceae. The family contains over 3000 described species in approximately 56 genera plus thousands of hybrids. The most well known bromeliad is the pineapple. Plants are widely represented in their natural climates across the Americas. They can be found at altitudes from sea level to 4200 meters, from rainforests to deserts. Approximately half the species are epiphytes, some are lithophytes, and some are terrestrial.
Growing Bromeliads from seed can be a rewarding experience. It is also a good way to acquire many plants that are the same. It is relative simple if the basic precautions are followed. Seeds are available from many sources, including the Bromeliad Society Seed Exchange, or other Bromeliad growers in your local area. It is generally accepted that the viability of Bromeliad seeds are limited. The seeds from the Family of Tillandsioideae probably has the shortest viability, about 4-6 weeks.
