This is a good quality, versatile formula for epiphytic plants. This fertilizer does not use urea as a nitrogen source, as it is not usable by epiphytic plants. Water soluble, it can be used in daily irrigation or applied at intervals. Will not burn foliage at recommended rates and does not stain foliage. This is the fertilizer we use here at Tropiflora for our bromeliads, orchids and all epiphytic plants.
Application Rates: Constant Feed: A rate of 50 to 150 ppm of nitrogen is recommended. For bi-weekly applications: Use at the rate of 1½ to 2 tsp per gallon of water. Monthly: 1 to 1½ to tbs/gal.
A hybrid of A. recurvata x cylindrata. A clump-forming plant barely over six inches tall. The leaves tighten up into a nice shape and color dark, almost black in full sun. Good hardy landscape subject for rock gardens.
Interesting and hardy, with foliage stiffly upright to 24 inches rather narrow with a terminal spine, green with distinctive silver banding. The inflorescence is a cluster of short pale branches and reddish bracts.
A smaller form of the species first collected in Brazil by Mulford Foster near Sta. Theresa, Espirito Santo in 1940. He noted its attractive look and hardiness to low temperatures experienced at his Orlando, Florida home. An attractive plant that tolerates full sun, but also serves well in a terrarium. Small, to only 8 to 12 inches or so, it colors an overall pinkish in strong light with silvery banding on the leaf both upper and undersides. The inflorescence is an exerted scape with reddish-orange bracts and a cone-like head with yellow flowers that turn black the following day. The leaf margins have prominent dark spines.
A true desert-dweller from the rocky hills of Puebla and Oaxaca, Mexico. A compact plant with wide leaves tapering to a sharp spine and bearing large marginal spines and a light strip up the leaf in more mature specimens. Reaches about 24in.
A choice miniature from Mexico that grows in a full compact rosette to about 6 inches. The stiff leaves are very thick and succulent terminating in a sharp spine. With age the plant develops white filaments along the leaf margins, which grow fairly long and curl. This form has bold creamy white variegation along the margins. Cold hardy for gardens to freezing and just below. Small enough and slow enough for pot culture.
