Bromeliads and Birds of Paradise Leaves? Flower of the Day, Mar 21, 2017

No.  Everything in this photo except the light switch and plugin comes from a palm tree. The flowers are undeveloped and shrunken coconuts, the leaves are painted fruiting stem sheathes and the twigs are palm fruiting bundles minus the “fruit.”  Even the vase is made from a fruiting bundle sheath, soaked, formed and sewn with raffia.  It is one of the wonderful pieces by my artist friend Rick Cranston, who is doing amazing things with found objects here at the beach. It is 7 feet 8 inches tall.
