Do Bromeliads ever re-bloom?

According to the University of Florida: Many factors cause bromeliads to bloom such as plant age, day length, light intensity, water and temperature. Some bromeliads bloom quite regularly while others do not. Research on the flowering process has shown that bromeliads can be induced to flower by exposing them to ethylene gas (a product of burning wood and leaves and ripening fruit and vegetables). After exposure to ethylene gas, the flowers appear, depending on the genus involved, within 6 to 14 weeks. A simple method that a home gardener can use to start bromeliads' flowering is to place a healthy, mature plant with all the water drained from its cup inside a tightly closed, clear plastic bag for a week to 10 days with a ripe apple. During senescence (aging process), the apple releases ethylene gas that, in turn, induces the bromeliad to flower.

In the Gregorian calendar, for a year to be a leap year, the year would have to be not only divisible by 4, but in the cases where the year is divisible by 100, to be divisible by 400, also. Therefore, 2000 was a leap year, but 2100, 2200, 2300 will not be leap years.

Why isn't there one extra day every 100 years?

The Julian calendar, the predecessor to the Gregorian calendar, which we use today, had a leap year every four years. The trouble with that is from the time Julius Caesar introduced the calendar in the first century B.C. until Pope Gregory XIII "fixed" it in the 16th century, it had accumulated an error of ten extra days. The Gregorian calendar has three fewer days every 400 years than the Julian calendar in order to make the average length of the calendar year closer to the length of an actual year.

An actual year, the time it takes the Earth to complete one solar orbit, is

365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46½ seconds.

The average length of a year of the Gregorian calendar is

365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes and 12 seconds.

The average length of a year of the Julian calendar was

365 days and 6 hours.

"Century" years, numbers divisible by 100, are NOT leap years, except;==2. Year numbers that are evenly divisible by 400 ARE leap years.==So 1992 and 1996 were leap years because they are divisible by 4. 1900 was NOT a leap year even though it is divisible by 4, because it is divisible by 100. And 2000 WAS a leap year because it was divisible by 400.==So 2008 was, and 2012 will be, and 2016 will be. But the year 2100 will NOT be a leap year.=

Can there be 8 years gap in leap year?

Indeed there can be 8 years between consecutive leap years. The rule is that a year is a leap year if it is divisible by 4 and not divisible by 100, or if it is divisible by 400. For example, 1700, 1800 and 1900 were not leap years but 1600 and 2000 were leap years.

The last occurrence of an 8-year gap between consecutive leap years was therefore 1896 and 1904. The next occurrence will be 2096 and 2104.
