Dyckia, Type of terrestrial Bromeliad. Not sure on the species or cultivar. Nice specimen though.  Very easy to grow in pots/ in the ground among rocks (  Many Dyckia can tolerate regular moisture, but any excess water has to drain away well )...

@Silas_Sancona thank you.  Not even an aloe.  The plant I bought is pretty much dead and this plant grew, possibly from seed in the soil, so I let grow not knowing what it was.

@Gonzer might have a better idea, but i thought D. brevifolia had much shorter/ fatter leaves than the one pictured..  At least what specimens i've seen ( just a few honestly )..

I would trust Gonzer.  So many Dyckia species and hybrids its tough to keep up with them.   Although it has been clarified that it isn't D brevifolia, here is a D brevifolia to confirm what Silas said in describing them.
