Study of Bromeliad inflorescence

"A bromeliad inflorescence is a specialized, often long-lasting flower stalk that emerges from the center of the plant, featuring vibrant bracts (modified leaves) in shades of red, yellow, or purple that surround small, short-lived flowers."

and welcome back! It took me some time to get my mojo back after my "treatments" which were nothing as drastic and invasive as what you just went through, so it's good to have you back!
