Description

Aechmea fasciata (Urn Plant), native to Brazil, is a striking tropical bromeliad known for its silvery, banded, arching foliage and a tall, showy flower spike that emerges from the plant’s central rosette. The large pink bracts can last for months and are accompanied by smaller bluish-purple flowers, adding a dramatic flair to interiorscapes and tropical gardens. This epiphytic species gained popularity in the mid-20th century as an easy-to-grow houseplant thanks to its tolerance for low light and unique sculptural appearance. It has become a symbol of ornamental bromeliads due to its architectural form and low-maintenance requirements.

Long-lasting pink inflorescence with purple-blue flowers rising from a silvery vase-like rosette
Striking, powdery silver foliage with transverse banding and spiny margins
Epiphytic origin allows growth in containers, tree crotches, or as a mounted specimen
