A beautiful yellow-blushing form with white flowers, that we found in Costa Rica back in 2002 on a trip along with Chester Skotak and Hiroyuki Takizawa. We do not have many, even after all this time. It’s a little slower to grow than the typical form, but is worth the wait. SEL2002-0299.

A hybrid of (bulbosa x streptophylla) by Mark Dimmitt. This interesting plant could be described as a larger bulbosa-type plant with broader, more twisted leaves. Or, as a streptophylla-type plant with shiny and deeply channeled leaves. In other words, a good split of characteristics of both parents.

This hybrid is sometimes found as a natural cross in Guatemala. Grows well mounted, easily forming large clusters of plants. 

A cross of (ionantha ‘red’ x bulbosa lg form) by Bill Timm. Kind of unique we think because usually anything crossed with ionantha ends up looking more like a big ionantha.  Tillandsia ‘Luke’ is an exception, with a bulbous base and upright habit, it resembles the bulbosa parent.  More silvery than green it also has many more leaves than a bulbosa. 

When blooming the whole upper whorl of leaves and the inflorescence blushes red with blue flowers.  It is a stunning plant, not large, but showy. 

An all-time favorite from Brazil is about 6 inches across in a leafy rosette with stiff gray-green leaves. It produces a stunning blue-flowered, plume-shaped pink inflorescence in the summer. In nature this plant can be found growing on the restinga sands of beach dunes and in trees in the foothills of the Atlantic Range in Brazil.

Large clumps will form in just a few seasons, that can be hung from wires and will form perfectly symmetrical balls of many plants. One of the easiest and most prolific of Tillandsias to cultivate.

A hybrid of arequitae x stricta. A robust cross forming a very leafy, silvery-green rosette with a tall, unbranched inflorescence. The inflorescence has subtle pale peach bracts and large light blue flowers. A strong grower that likes bright light and airy conditions.

Our periodic Two - For - One Tillandsia Collections are a great way to start with Tillandsias and share with a friend! All plants in our collections are chosen for diverse variety and ease of culture. Plants are of types that can be mounted or kept bare root in baskets or even hung from a string.

Care consists of the basics: Good bright filtered light, good air circulation, watering when needed by wetting the entire plant and occasional fertilizing, with an 'orchid type' fertilizer. You will get two each of ten varieties, twenty plants in all, all labeled and ready to grow. Plants will be from about half mature to blooming and all of vigorous, easy varieties. This collection changes periodically so you may want to check back from time to time.

To learn more about the plants in the collection, we suggest that you go to the web page for each variety to see a photo and read more about the plant. This collection has a retail value of $130.00 if purchased individually, but you can have the entire collection for only $59.95!

A hybrid by Michael Kiehl. Both parents are nicely banded, reddish over green, this plant though has shown more of a tendency towards red mottling over green. Once hardened off, it takes on brighter colors, becoming yellowish with red markings.

This Jim Irvin hybrid is the same cross as his ‘Mo Peppa Please’ but is not as dark. A 4 to 6 inch plant that is upright and stoloniferous with yellowish leaves highly speckled with red. The center blush at anthesis is bright red.

This is a natural hybrid apparently of (ionantha x fasciculata ‘Hondurensis’) that came from Honduras and was given to Bill Timm some years ago. Later Bill gave us a piece back with the name ‘Veronica’s Gift’ on it. It took quite a while to propagate enough to release them.

It is a handsome plant with many silvery, semi-stiff leaves in a full, vase shaped rosette. Unusual for an ionantha hybrid, it does not blush in the center at anthesis but rather produces a short cluster of pinkish branches and blue flowers. A very nice plant that has proven easy to cultivate under typical conditions afforded our Tillandsias.

A hybrid of (fasciculata x concolor) by Steve Correale is the reverse cross of ‘Silver Sword’, larger and not as stiff leaved and having a branched rather than simple inflorescence.

A nice silvery, fasciculata-type plant with a branched inflorescence, typically three-branches but not always. The inflorescence is rather inflated with long, lanceolate branches, pink at the bottom, transitioning to green at the top. Really a nice looking plant.
