Aechmea orlandiana is species in the genus Aechmea endemic to Brazil. The plant was originally collected by the family of Mulford B. Foster in 1939 in Espírito Santo, Brazil, and described by in 1941 L. B. Smith. He named it for the city of Orlando, Florida, based upon it being the Foster's adopted home town, and the orange bracts and white flowers also being the city colors of Orlando.
