Sorry about the repeat of this FFF, but this is one of TPP's favorite house plants and it flowers when this blogger is hard up for material. The Queen's tears is the common name of Billbergia nutans, a member of the pineapple/bromeliad family. And the flowers are just so darned lovely. You just have to love the blue eye liner margins of the green petals emerging from pink sepals and bracts. Even the yellow exerted anthers show up so nicely. It gives us something to look forward to in the winter.
