Description:
Puya mirabilis is a fast-growing terrestrial bromeliad native to Bolivia, forming large grassy clumps of rosettes. It can grow up to 1-1.5 meters tall with a tall, stiff inflorescence that blooms in autumn. The plant prefers well-drained soil and regular moisture, reducing watering in winter. Hardy to USDA Zones 9-11, it features tough, rosette-forming leaves with finely toothed edges and greenish-yellow flowers that twist as they fade.
