Aechmea Chantinii Bromeliad

This beautiful Amazonian species consists of an open rosette of about a dozen leaves, which are 2 in. (5cm) broad and 1ft (30cm) long, decorated with broad bands of green and white.

In August it bears a dense panicle of red and yellow flowers surrounded by bright red bracts. Sometimes available from florists, it is a good houseplant but should have a winter minimum temperature of 60 degrees F (15 degrees C).
