It’s a Bromeliad and you water them it in the cups of the leaves

Tip: these are pretty short-lived plants. When it's aging out, it'll make little pups around the bottom and the main plant will die. When you see those pups, look up how to propagate them to restart it. These are also great plants to share with friends, since you'll usually get more than one pup
