Now how am I going to find the best tillys to grow from seed?
So the area under my shelving (the floor) looks to be a good place to grow from seed.

Finding out very quickly Tillandsia seeds are very hard to buy.
Looking at China based seed rip offs!
Anybody got any Tillandsia seed sourcing info to buy?

Contact commercial Tillandsia growers in the US. They may be willing to sell it. They know they can't sell you plants. Most of them are very friendly, and probably glad to help set up Tillandsia commerce in Australia.
Also make contacts with gardeners and university biology students in areas where they are native.
Many enthusiasts here in the US get seed regularly, but daddy will be unknown. The bromeliad societies may have seed exchanges.
Does anybody know whether Tillandsias set seed in parts of the world without hummingbirds?
