description_en: Genus of 5 species of stemless or short-stemmed, evergreen, xerophytic, terrestrial or epiphytic perennials (bromeliads) from coastal and central areas, to 400m (1,300ft) high, in Chile. They bear linear, widely spreading leaves in dense rosettes, forming distinct central cups. An inflorescence appears in the centre of each rosette, in summer; it has a very short scape and a spherical, corymb-like flowerhead of tubular blue flowers, and is followed by ovoid, scaly fruits. They are attractive plants for a desert garden, rock garden, or raised bed, by a sunny wall, or in containers. Where temperatures drop below 2-7°C (36-45°F), grow in a cool greenhouse.
