This distinctive form is very possibly a new species. Its natural range is restricted to rocky cliffs in arid central Honduras, a habitat to which it is well adapted. Its leaves are thick to almost succulent, silvery and curving inwards towards their tips. The inflorescence is very large, usually branched and varies between green and orange to red and yellow. A very striking plant.
Tillandsia fasciculata 'Hondurensis' has been officially named Tillandsia lenca as of January 2025
