The plant you have seems to be [*Cryptanthus bivittatus*](https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/cryptanthus-bivittatus/)*.* This plant requires humid conditions with consistent moisture, and requires well-drained soils that aren’t too rich in clay. They normally produce offsets and require dappled sunlight

It’s in the bromeliad species which means it has a death bloom but it will produce a few little babies and perpetuate forever with the right care.
