A smaller growing species from Minas Gerais, Brazil. A rarely seen plant with narrow, stiff leaves, green with small, soft, pale-white marginal spines. A short spike bears orange flowers. Our plants came from the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens collection with the accession number of SEL1995-0187, it was collected by Harry Luther in Minas Gerais, Brazil near Serra do Cabral in the vicinity of Joaquim Felicio on an expedition with Leme, Benzing and Nahoum. Â
A colorful small plant with green leaves, washed with red and a sort of banded pattern. The cup flushes vivid red-purple in bloom. A nice windowsill-sized plant. The cross is by Gary Hendrix Neoregelia princeps x ‘Fireball’ x ‘Peggy Pollard’.
A cute miniature Neo hybrid from Ray Coleman. An upright grower with stiff, inch-wide light green leaves that are heavily banded with rusty red on the top and bottom and having cherry red tips. Color and patterns vary. A nice plant for a clustering specimen or for terrarium use.

This Chester Skotak hybrid (cross not yet reported) is a Neo. ‘Hannibal Lecter’- like plant in size, shape and pattern. The leaves start out green but with age and good light develop a yellowish tinge. The leaves are heavily marked with red banding in the typical Tiger pattern and the leaf edges have moderate spines. Beautiful, glossy foliage, a winner!
A choice form that should be registered. (Maybe we will). Depending on how it’s grown, can be very ampoule-shaped with short leaves or a little more open in a vase shape. Green with dark reddish brown banding, stronger on the undersides of the leaf. Grows on short stolons, forming attractive clumps and perfect for mounting or for decorative containers or baskets.
Looking forward to growing this out in under plant lights during winter time.

This cross was genius, or maybe dumb luck, but at any rate it ended up fantastic. A cross of (fasciculata x flagellata) by Chester Skotak, it blends two of the best Tillandsias out there. Ecuadorean T. flagellata is itself a gem, with many narrow, soft leaves in a gracefully arching rosette. The inflorescence is brilliant red. This hybrid takes all the best of that species and blends it with the vigor of fasciculata and the robust bloom of both. Beautiful but slow, but like all good things, worth waiting for.Â
The giant growing version of T. 'Imbroglio'. A probable cross of (duratii x stricta). A rosette-shaped plant with narrow, stiff, silvery-gray, succulent leaves spanning 16 inches. The inflorescence is an arching, branched panicle, purple in color with open, purplish flowers that have a fragrance similar to the duratii parent, but not as strong.

A handsome miniature hybrid by Mark Dimmitt using Tillandsia ionantha crossed with funckiana, both red-blushing species. The hybrid is somewhat caulescent with densely packed, short, succulent leaves on a 3 inch stem. The plant can blush bronzy-red in strong light especially if not over fed, but at anthesis it blushes somewhat crimson. The flowers are compact and purple in color. Easily forms small clumps after anthesis.Â
I'm very happy to receive a fine Tillandsia 'Peach Parfait' I think it's a great Hybrid. I want to see flower as soon as possible. Thank you very much.
