Starting my list with the most beautiful Bromeliads.

Perfect for home or office space.

Bromeliads do not grow in soil, they prefer moss.

They do not like excess water too. So, let the root dry out completely before you water again. Once in 2 weeks is enough.

This is a houseplant that needs very little light.

They can even grow in artificial light.
