A stunning hybrid of (pseudobaileyi x streptophylla) by Robert Spivey that is a perfect balance of the two parents.  It has clean lines with a bulbous base and upright terete foliage that is slightly wavy and silvery gray.  The inflorescence is erect with several branches, slightly exceeding the foliage.  The scape and branches are bright pink becoming silvery white.  A choice hybrid and easy to grow. 

A handsome hybrid of (capitata x fasciculata ‘Magnificent’) by Steve Correale with a 20 inch spreading rosette of fasciculata-type foliage, stiff and rather narrow, reddish and showing some banding on the undersides. The inflorescence is a red spike of short branches reaching about 10 inches tall.

An Australian made hybrid of (intermedia x ionantha) by Margaret Paterson. If you are familiar with T. intermedia, you will know that it is a famously proliferating plant, producing offsets from the top of the inflorescence as well as from the base. Well this plant combined with ionantha has produced some unusual but possible predictable results. Singly the plants look a bit like a tall ionantha and upon blooming it will blush red. However it will often surprise and delight by producing one or more offsets from the apex of the plant and successive bloomings will produce an odd, connected cluster of plants.

A cross of (albertiana x muhriae) by Mark Dimmitt. An interesting plant with semi-terete succulent leaves in an attenuated rosette. The foliage is reddish-green, finely lineated and loosely arranged on a 3 to 4 inch stem. Large deep pink flowers. Seldom offered. 

A clone of capitata from Steve Correale, as best as we can ascertain. It could be a hybrid or a cross of different clones of the species, but for sure it is a nice, large, colorful plant. An open rosette of arching green leaves with silvery trichomes and a slight blush of red. The inflorescence is capitate with long bracts of pinkish-orange. Very colorful and long lasting. 

A John Arden hybrid of (jalisco-monticola x capitata). A tough and showy plant with leathery reddish leaves in a symmetrical, very leafy rosette. The inflorescence is a tight cluster of many dark orange branches in a capitate head with long scape bracts exceeding the branches. Very long lasting in color. A heavy plant, tough and sturdy, easy to grow. Grows well mounted or potted in a fast draining mix with good aeration. 

A hybrid of (caput-medusae x balbisiana) definitely leaning more to the T. caput-medusae parent.  A bulbous base with long and twisting leaves that are more terete than flat. 

The inflorescence is a cluster of bright red branches on a short scape.  The plant is silvery with trichomes, but has a reddish blush in strong light and at anthesis.
