Vriesea 'Splenriet', a hybrid of Vriesea splendens that is also known as flaming sword, is ideal for novice gardeners. As a member of the bromeliad family, this plant is epiphytic in nature (meaning that it extracts nutrients from the air) and is super-easy to care for.

Vriesea ‘Splenriet’, a hybrid of Vriesea splendens that is also known as flaming sword, is ideal for novice gardeners. As a member of the bromeliad family, this plant is epiphytic in nature (meaning that it extracts nutrients from the air) and is super-easy to care for. Bromeliad blooms last for an average of 3-6 months, making them some of the longest-flowering plants.

The flaming sword is unusual looking and quite distinct from typical office and indoor plants. The spikey foliage is unusually attractive, but it is the flat, colourful, sword-like blooms for which the plant is most highly prized.

Caring for flaming sword

Water: Bromeliads are tropical plants with a ‘rosette cup’ at the base of the leaves that should always be full of water. Take care not to let the water stagnate – a weekly top-up allows the ‘old’ water to be displaced into the soil, which is exactly what the plant needs to thrive.

Light: Position in a well-lit location out of direct light

Pest control: Bromeliads require no pest or disease control.

Feed with: A monthly addition of liquid fertiliser to the water will promote plant growth and intensify colours.
