An interesting sport of the species, this produces a white inflorescence rather than the usual pink. Only a few available.

A dramatic Steve Correale cross of Till. chiapensis x Till. botteri. This is a grex sibling to T. 'King Cobra', with differences mainly found in the overall size of the plant and shape of the inflorescence. A large grower with a loose rosette shape that can reach 20 inches across and 20 inches tall.  The leaves are thick and leathery, heavily scurfed with silver trichomes, silvery but tinting pinkish-red in strong light.  The inflorescence can be 30 inches tall with long, thick, upright and curving branches of dark pink-red.

duratii v. saxatilis x purpurea

A handsome cross of Tillandsia tricolor x fasciculata by Bill Timm. The same cross and a similar plant to T. ‘Ervin Wurthman’. A robust plant to about 24 inches tall, with narrow, gracefully arching reddish, somewhat silver dusted leaves in an upright rosette. The inflorescence is a tall red and yellow scape that is usually well branched.

Tillandsia brachycaulos × Tillandsia fasciculata

A cute, sport of Tillandsia ionantha 'Rubra', that we dubbed 'Han' in honor of our own special Han!

An unknown hybrid we received years ago, labeled T. kegeliana hybrid. Our best guess would factor in T. fasciculata Costa Rica, as well. First release of this beauty!

A pretty plant that grows caulescent clusters, with wide, stiff, silvery-white leaves. The inflorescence is a simple thin red spike. Native to central Mexico. Can be cultivated in a basket, mounted or hanging from a wire or string. Likes bright light and good air circulation. This clone is much smaller than the normal form.

Another lovely hybrid by Paul Isley of xerographica x rothii.

*VIPP plants are not in bud

A complete unknown. This lovely plant has been growing in our collection for at least 20 years without an identification. A long, leafy, almost fasciculata looking plant that produces striking yellow-orange multi-branched inflorescence.
