It is interesting to note that in the Fortuna region this variety is restricted to the densely forested Pacific slopes above the dam. Less than 20 km distant, on the Caribbean slopes in very similar forests at equivalent elevation, all plants of Guzmania musaica represent the typical variety with orange or red bracts and yellow calyx and corolla. These color morphs represent discreet populations and they are not occasional color forms within a population. —SeeSelbyanap. ???
