I need help Identifying this Bromeliad

14 years ago

I recently bought a bromeliad from Lowes but the name tag it came with pinned it with a generic "Bromeliads". I thought it looked somewhat like a guzmania but the lowes website said the genus was Bromelia. Hopefully someone here can ID this.

It's definetly a Guzmania (perhaps Denise). Perhaps Guzzie collectors can give the correct name. Bromelia have stiff very spinely leaves.
