Sometimes known as Nidularium meyendorffii, this vase-forming bromeliad forms a wide rosette of strap-like, glossy, bright-green leaves with pointed tips. It flowers at any time of the year; flowering encourages the leaves around the rosette to turn purple or bright red. It develops small, violet-blue flowers surrounded by glossy, red bracts. There are several forms of this plant, including tricolor, with glossy-green leaves lined with cream and rose-pink stripes.

Height: 9–12in (23–30cm)

Spread: 15–20in (38–50cm)

Winter: 55–59°F (13–15°C). Direct light without full sun

Summer: 61–80°F (16–27°C). Indirect light or light shade

Care: In winter, keep compost just moist and the urn full of water; in summer, water the compost moderately, also topping up the water in the urn, and feed every 5 weeks with a weak liquid fertilizer. Repot young plants in spring, usually every 3–4 years.

Propagation: In early summer, remove offsets, transfer to individual pots, and place in 70°F (21°C).
