Figure 1 – Bromeliad guzmania. (c) DE Wolf 2021.

A dear friend gave me a  bromeliad guzmania as a house warming gift. Bromeliads are oh so dramatic house plants. They ultimately fade away only to resurrect themselves as so called “pups.” This morning I was checking that the cups on my bromeliad were holding water when I became totally enthralled and delighted by how the early morning sunlight transilluminated the leaves to yield the soft pastel orange image of Figure 1. It was, of course, a task for my iPhone XS. I was for a few moments transported to a tropical isle.
