bromeliad
Epiphytic flowering plant
A bromeliad is a tropical plant of the family Bromeliaceae, typically with stiff, spiny leaves arranged in a rosette and often with colorful flower spikes.
Many bromeliads are epiphytes, growing on trees rather than in soil.
The pineapple is the most familiar bromeliad, though most species are ornamental houseplants or garden specimens in warm climates.
