X billmea 'Pasquale'- Bi-generic cross between Billbergia pyramidalis X Aechmea recurvate v. benrathii

I have had 'Her Highness' for about a year and have only gotten 1 growth flush. I have it growing in 1/2 day sun. Is this one just naturally slow growing?

'Miss Minnie' a very nice miniature Ti seedling from 'Xerox'
