Deuterocohnia brevifolia Fine Form is a striking, compact bromeliad species native to Argentina and Bolivia. This miniature form grows in dense clusters, forming tight, geometric rosettes of thick, spiky green leaves. It thrives in arid environments, making it a perfect candidate for rock gardens, xeriscaping, and container displays.
Distinctive Features
- Dense Rosettes: Forms compact, rounded clusters of small, triangular leaves.
