Terri--

I think you did answer your own question.
Bromeliads grow, naturally, in dappled shade in tops of rain forests.

I would put it in part shade. Like--under a tree.
The yellowing of your leaves is, probably, due to too much sun.


Sally and Pat--thank you for your advice on re potting the "Queens Tears".

Holly--here is the BIG "Waldo".....aka my old Pony Tail Palm.
This has 5 bulbs in it, now about the size of lg. oranges.It totally covers the plant stand.

It started as an small, 3" pot "Angel Plant" with 5 tiny bulbs in it the size of marbles.
I am going to guess I bought it some time when I still worked at "Franks"---
Been at HD now fir 17 years--So--it is probably 18-20 years old.

To the left of the PTP--are my 2 lg. beef Steak Begonias.
Have had these for ages as well--maybe 25 years old?--propagated from leaves
over the years.
