The leaves are just plain green, but the blooms really nice and long lasting. Had these for many years. Anyone know the names of either one?

The one in the corner looks like Portea petropolitano, not Aechmea. The other looks like A. amicorum.

You are right, now that I think of it, the pink one is a Portea hybrid. (XPortmea). But not pure petropolitano, I've got those in the yard. No purple in this one.
