Tillandsia 'Little Thunder'
2816
An especially cute little hybrid by Paul Isley. A cultivar of Tillandsia pueblensis x ionantha. Like most Tillandisa hybrids with ionantha, it tends to favor that species. However, it does have a good resemblance to the pueblensis parent with longer, thicker leaves. The overall shape is upright with a long stem and three inch, deeply channeled leaves tapering to a point growing upright along the stem. The color is deep green dusted with abundant silvery trichomes.
The inflorescence, deep rose in color, is a short, upright, scape rising slightly above the foliage. Flowers are deep blue. Forms clusters and will tint slightly in bright light but does not blush when blooming. A great little plant.
Tillandsia chiapensis x fasciculata 'Magnificent'
1111
A reverse cross of the outstanding hybrid ‘Steve’ by Steve Correale which is (fasciculata ‘Magnificent’ x chiapensis). Very similar in most aspects, maybe just a bit more scurffy with an inflorescence that is more open than in the ‘Steve’. A plant of heavy, thick substance. The inflorescence has a similar shape to that of the fasciculata parent, which is an outstanding form native to northern Panama, but is a bit thicker and heavily dusted with the silver trichomes over red that makes the inflorescence fuzzy pink like that of the chiapensis parent.

The inflorescence is a tall, green scape which tends to be drooping with age due to its weight. The scape is up to 5 feet tall with many, many short, strobilate branches. The lower part bears narrow scape bracts that are light lavender. This is a very rare species in cultivation.

A nice hybrid with silvery-white leaves in a full rosette that can reach 10 inches across in larger specimens. The inflorescence is fairly stricta-like, about 6 inches long and nodding. The bracts are bright pink frosted with silver on the tips. A choice plant that needs a good name.
