Product Description

Vriesea sanguinolenta is a striking tropical plant known for its long, sword-shaped leaves that display a deep green to burgundy-red hue. These leathery leaves can grow up to 1 meter in length, creating a rosette-like shape. When mature, it produces a tall, dramatic flower spike with red bracts and pale yellow flowers, reaching heights of over 2 meters. This epiphyte thrives in humid environments and is often found clinging to trees in its native habitat. Vriesea sanguinolenta stands out for its bold, blood-red tones, making it a highly ornamental species.
