4.8 / 5.0

I received an order last week and am so happy with it that I have just made another order. The plants are strong and healthy and the service prompt and easy to order. Thank you for your great service.

Patricia Edwards

Holly has been so helpful, she has been great in sending us tree photos, hole dimensions and upgrading our order with new stock arriving, very happy with the prompt replies and great service we have received – thank you

Eddie C

Could not recommend enough - I placed quite a large order and needed it delivered on a particular day. Holly was extremely helpful in getting that organised and even assisted with a last minute plant swap.

Harry Hart

I bought a Lilly Pilly from here and 100% will be buying from these guys again. Although the first tree didn’t look good within the first week, the team were so helpful and provided great service with the 30 day guarantee.

Sophie Robertson

Extremely impressed with the easy to navigate website, huge selection of plants but best of all were the prices. As we were looking to buy bulk Lilly Pilly’s for a hedge the discounts available were fantastic for a 10 pack.

Jessica Roe

We've used Brisbane Plant Nursery for a few of our projects over the past year and have been impressed with the quality of stock and the communication of any updates for our orders.

Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad

Transform Your Garden with the Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad

The Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad (Alcantarea imperialis) is a breathtaking addition to any garden or interior space. Its large, silvery-purple leaves form a dramatic rosette that exudes tropical sophistication. Native to Brazil, this slow-growing epiphyte can reach up to 2 metres in both height and width, and often produces pups, creating an impressive focal point in landscapes, courtyards, or feature pots.

Come summer, this bromeliad unveils a tall, branching inflorescence adorned with vibrant pink or red blossoms—a spectacular display of nature's artistry. Its hardy foliage and striking colour palette guarantee it as a tropical standout choice for gardeners seeking low-maintenance beauty with maximum impact.

Why the Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad Stands Out

  • Impressive Size and Form: With its grand stature and perfectly symmetrical rosette, it's ideal for creating bold statements in gardens or contemporary spaces.
  • Striking Colour Contrast: The silvery-purple tones add depth and drama to tropical or modern landscaping schemes.
  • Resilient and Versatile: Adapts to various conditions, thriving in full sun or partial shade while tolerating drought once established, making it an example of a xerophyte.

 

A Hardy and Low-Maintenance Showstopper

The Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad is not just a beauty—it’s a survivor. Drought-tolerant and easy to maintain, it rewards gardeners with lush growth and stunning seasonal blooms without demanding constant care. Whether planted solo in a prominent spot or as part of a layered garden design, this bromeliad offers timeless elegance and visual appeal.

FAQs

Can the Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad grow indoors?

Yes, Alcantarea imperialis can thrive indoors in bright, indirect light. Ensure good airflow and water sparingly to prevent overwatering.

How long does Giant Silver Plum Bomeliad take to flower?

This bromeliad typically flowers after several years of growth, rewarding patience with a tall, dramatic flower spike.

Is the Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad drought-tolerant?

Yes, Alcantarea imperialis tolerates dry conditions once established but benefits from occasional watering during prolonged dry spells.

Can Giant Silver Plum Bromeliad be planted in pots?

Absolutely! Its compact root system makes it perfect for large pots, where it can be showcased as a stunning feature plant.

Beautiful trees and excellent customer service. I had a little problem with my first order, contacted customer service and they could not have been more helpful. They came to my rescue and I now have beautiful healthy trees.
