Bromeliad 'Elegant Flames'
Aechmea pepita 'Elegant Flames'
Leaves in a rosette formation with a bright red stalk growing from the center!
Aechmea is derived from the Greek, It means 'lance tip'. Don’t let the aptly named leaves keep you away! The Dazzling red and yellow flame-shaped flower is what gives this plant its otherworldly appearance. This plant is easy to care for and a beautiful one at that! They were introduced to Europe around 1826 as a new and exotic house plant, from there they have been cultivated to create beautiful and unique colour patterns!
