    Hi
    What is the name of this house plant

    Is it a variation of Bromeliads

    What care does it need? Have just been given it some water (not a lot) in the central stem

    Will the flower on it die away and is it best discarded then ?

    Thanks

    Yes it is a Bromeliad check goolge for images that are the same , just keep the center stem topped up with water plus some in the pot, The flower will die once it has cut it back, the main growth will die but it should send up growths from the base.
