A desert dweller from the rocky hills of Mexico's Tehuacan desert. A rootless plant, it grows on a long stem which can reach several feet in length, with six inch long, rather wide and stiff silvery leaves. In nature it lays among the boulders at the base of towering cliffs in hot, dry conditions. Its rose colored spike may be simple or branched. In cultivation it enjoys bright filtered light and good air circulation. Grows well in an empty wooden basket or suspended from a hanger.
An attractive pot plant or hardy landscape plant, cylindrical spike with rose-red bracts and yellow flowers. A medium sized clustering plant with an upright rosette shape and short stolons. The green foliage has a dusting of trichomes giving a slight grayish appearance.
Nice plant for mounting, with upright, somewhat tubular stoloniferous rosettes to about 8 inches or so. The leaves are green with dark bases, tiny spines and the spike is a delicate panicle of dark gray and blue. Very attractive in clumps, it is also a good choice for terrariums.
A cultivar of Billbergia 'Anna Louise' x leptopoda by Ben Sill. Narrow tube of green with white spots smudge patterns of red on the underside of the leaves. Prefers bright filtered light.
A new unusual cultivar of nummularia from Thailand. It has darker and smaller green leaves than the parent. The shape of the leaves is convex and are closely spaced and they grow very close to the stem.
This is one of Bill Baker’s crosses for which he was justifiably famous. A beautiful plant with bright silvery, fairly narrow leaves with large, pronounced marginal spines. A very leafy plant forming a full, thick rosette to about 18 inches across.
A medium size growing species from Colinas do Sul Brazil. Thick succulent green leaves with some red along the edges when grown in full sun. The spines are short, stiff and very sharp.
