I guess in Portland they could be grown as a patio plant and brought inside during cold weather. How much light are yours in? And why aren't these more widely grown?

It doesn't go dormant, but acts like other Bromeliads. In fact, I have many different types of Bromeliads here. We have had only 2 frosts in the past 18 years, but do get lots of rain and into the 40's often in winter. I highly recommend these plants for those who like to mount plants to hang on the fence etc. I have bunches of these attached to a large tree and they bloom for me every year. The flowers on mine are hot pink, blue and yellow! I have many of these in my garden here in San Francisco! It doesn’t go dormant, but acts like other Bromeliads.
