Description

Silver Vase / Urn Plant (Aechmea fasciata) is an exotic-looking flowering plant from the bromeliad (Bromeliaceae) family. Despite its exotic appearance and tropical nature, this bromeliad adapts well to living as a potted house plant. In Kansas, use as a summer patio plant and protect from direct sunlight in mid summer and any temperatures below 50 degrees F in the spring or fall. As an epiphyte, much of its water needs are met by keeping the plants center "Urn" filled with water once per week or two. They have a shallow root systems and probably won't ever need repotted. When flowering, the flowers themselves are short-lived, but the pink and red bracts last for a few months.
