Types of Fascicularia

Two-coloured crimson bromeliad

This attractive pineapple cousin is indigenous to South America, but cultivated in Mediterannean gardens because of its looks - specifically, the blue inflorescence standing in the quite dramatic contrast with the top crimson foliage, which again stands in contrast with the bottom dark green leaves. The "bicolor" part of two-coloured crimson bromeliad's scientific name stands precisely for double-colored leaves.
