Save Florida's Native Bromeliads


Several species of Florida's native bromeliads are under attack by an invasive pest weevil. The Florida Council of Bromeliad Societies, the University of Florida, the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry (DPI), and the Escuela Agrícola Panamericana (El Zamorano, Honduras) are collaborating in an effort to manage weevil populations through biological control.
Many thanks to the project's supporters. We hope you will join them by learning more about the value of these unique plants to our state and helping to prevent the potential tragedy of their loss. Project Contacts Site Map Email us with your questions or comments.
