![]()
The Bromeliad 'Silver Vase', or Silver Vase Bromeliad, Urn Plant, is a perennial epiphyte (air plant) belonging to the Bromeliaceae family. It forms a central "vase" or "cup" with its leaves. This plant is native to the tropical rainforests of Brazil (specifically the state of Rio de Janeiro).![]()
The 'Silver Vase' is special because of its durable, architectural foliage and the stunning longevity of its bloom. The thick, silvery coating on its leaves is actually made of fine, protective scales called trichomes, which are adapted to absorb water and nutrients directly from the air and rain, showcasing its epiphytic nature. It offers months of pink, vibrant color with minimal effort.
