Note (15779): Graeme Barclay (2019-07-01) - Hi Li Ping, there are many different forms of Alc. imperialis, some crimson (Rubra), some green, some silvery-green coloured. They should all have pale creamy white petals though and large robust inflorescences, as per those in your photos. Alcantarea regina is closely related and similar too - see the encylopaedia descriptions and notes to compare.
