This larger growing species is a rock dwelling saxicole in its native Jalisco, Mexico habitat. A wide spreading rosette of 3/4 inch wide, leathery leaves blushes bright red in strong light. At anthesis the capitate head of red bracts rises well above the foliage, is bright red with blue flowers. A very showy plant and prized by collectors. Can be grown mounted or potted in a well-draining media.

Air plants quality

My collection is now up to 40 air plants or so. I have them strung on chain so i can dip them more easily in a bucket of water when the time comes and then just hang them back up. There outside under shadecloth and like it alot. With summer in Florida i dont have to worry about rain too much but when winter comes it will rain less. all the people down at Tropiflora have been a great help.
