T. bulbosa mention in the quote below and I will add T. butzii are fine in a humid weather and watered regularly if you have them turned upside down after watering so the water does not pool at the leaf base to start the rot from forming. Air circulation is just so important with these plants called Tillandsia.


Quote:
There is a group with large bulbous leaf bases and few white hairs, like T. bulbosa. They mostly come from very arid areas, and store some water in the bulbous bases. They do better in low-humidity environments so long as they are not overwatered. These rot easily in a cool, high-humidity or always-wet situation.
