Guzmania Crown (Guzmania Conifera)

A showstopping tropical bromeliad with vibrant cone-shaped bracts that bring a splash of color and effortless tropical luxury to any room.

The Guzmania Conifera is more than just a beautiful plant — it's a symbol of effortless tropical luxury. With its unique cone-shaped bracts in fiery red, soft pink, or sunny yellow, and long-lasting blooms that hold their color for weeks, this bromeliad adds an exotic flair to any décor while being surprisingly easy to care for. Available in a 6" nursery planter or upgraded to our Selene Porcelain Planter (6.5").

What I love about it

The Guzmania Conifera is the bromeliad that earns its spot as a room centerpiece. The cone-shaped bracts are genuinely distinctive — not the flat, paddle-shaped bracts of a standard Guzmania, but a tall, architectural cone that draws the eye from across the room. The blooms last for several weeks, and the small yellow flowers that emerge from the center add a delicate touch to the colorful display. Great for beginners, rewarding for experienced plant lovers, and beautiful in any space from a living room to a bathroom.
