Voted 'Best in Show' at the 2022 World Bromeliad Conference. This is an absolute stunner! Unlike the typical form, this Tillandsia ehlersiana can grow larger than 2 feet tall!
Our stock originated from Mitch Rabin of Living Colors Nursery and selected out over many years by Tropiflora grower Veronica Orozco.
It’s simply awesome! What a huge pup which is only 1 year old !! And so much trichomes all over, giving it a velvety look, simply out of the world!! And it just took centrestage in my Secret Garden
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.
Decorative ceramic Autumn pumpkin planters, perfect for your favorite small tillandsia. This collection includes 4 pumpkins, one of each color as shown, for a set price of $24.99. Each planter measures 3" tall, includes a drain hole.
Somewhat squat plastic pots, three quarters as tall as wide, with drainage holes. This is the most common style of pot that we use here at Tropiflora and are pretty much the “industry standard” for most production of tropical plants and succulents.
We only stock in forest green. We do not carry other colors.
