Frappucino Vase Plant

Aechmea 'Frappuccino' is a colorful bromeliad grown for both its foliage and spikes of red flowers that are tipped with yellow. The dark green foliage has silver stripes and a reddish tinge beneath. This plant is propagated by dividing rhizomes, tubers, corms, or bulbs (including offsets). Drought-tolerant, it is well suited for xeriscaping. With average water needs, it should be watered regularly but not overwatered. The plant has spines or sharp edges, so use extreme caution when handling.
