@DeftStaraloe12 yes you have a pup that can be separated from the mother plant and made into a separate plant. The key is to wait until the pup is at least 1/3 the height of the mother plant to give it time to develop its own roots. Your flower is still colorful and intact so I wouldnโ€™t remove the pup just yet. I have two babies growing that I harvested from my bromeliad last year after the flower died. It takes a few years for the babies to grow flowers but my two pups are doing great so far. I watched You tube videos to figure how to do it but here is a link to a great resource site. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/bromeliad/growing-bromeliad-pups.htm
