I will send you one cutting to root of the Grandfather's Pipe Plant aka Fake Bromeliad or Basket Plant. The cutting you receive will be a runner with a small plant attached. It will be a starter plant. Please see picture 2 for an example. This plant will grow much bigger. You can root in water or plant in soil. I live in Atlanta. Frost or cold weather will kill this tropical plant so I winter over indoors in glass vases. You could also treat it as a houseplant in soil during winter. Plant outside in pots once danger of frost has passed in Spring. In warm weather your plant will really take off throwing out babies on runners. This plant is green and has Varigated leaves at times. Purple. Perhaps this depends on light. I offer free shipping!
