Bromeliad. Yes, it is in the same family as Pineapple.

We have several types of bromeliads at my condo property - I see the leaves but not so much the blossoms, but the leaves shown look like what we have here.

"Pineapples are of the Bromeliad family (genus: Ananas).... Many Bromeliads, like pineapples, are epiphytic — absorbing food and water through leaves rather than roots, and not needing soil for nutrition. Others are terrestrial, growing in soil and having more functional roots." [northcoastnews.com]

Your bromeliad is spectacular!
Yours is an Aechmea fasciata bromeliad
-- aka Urn Plant or Silver-Vase Plant.

It's a bromeliad, but I don't know the exact name. I think they're beautiful in a funky way, and the bloom lasts a really long time.

@hankster I'm pretty sure mine bloomed for months, so good luck with your medicine plant.
