description_en: Genus of about 25 species of rosette-forming, evergreen, usually epiphytic perennials (bromeliads), sometimes rhizomatous, related to Neoregelia, from woodland and rainforest, to 2,000m (6,500ft) high, mainly in Brazil. The toothed leaves are narrow to broadly strap-shaped. The conspicuous leaf sheaths surround tubular flowers, usually borne in summer; they nestle in a cluster of large bracts, resembling a bird’s nest. Where temperatures drop below 12°C (54°F), grow in a warm greenhouse or as houseplants; in warmer areas, grow in a moist, shady border.
