Quite a few bromeliads are starting to flower.
Billbergia nutans flower spike
A couple of Neoregelia McWilliamsii
Guzmania sprucei
Unknown Vriesea just starting to send a couple of spikes up
Unknown - have to wait until the flower opens properly before I try and ID it.

Very pretty Gail, and so colourful..
I dont think any of mine are flowering yet, do you have any idea when your mini pineapple one flowers/fruits
I feel I have had my one for over one year and all it has done has only grown more leaves.

Thanks Mary-Anne. I don't know when the mini will flower. Mine hasn't flowered since it was demolished by pups. It is only just starting to look good again now so I wouldn't be surprised if it flowers this year.

I'm hoping it will start in spring, same as the couple of other ananas we have - red and chocolate.
