Tillandsia House Air Plants Lichens Male
Default

Tillandsia ehlersiana: Seems a strange Tilly to grow here but I took an educated guess and got 1,1000 seedlings 10mm 3/8 lenght under misting for me for the 1st time out in the open. 3 months on and all looks good. Have had strongh growth and no losses as yet. It is a long summer coming up though. 50c per plant 1,000 buy.

Tillandsia ehlersiana Native distribution: native to Chiapas, Mexico.

Habit: Tillandsia, forms a large bulbous base, has white lepidote foliage and rose colored spikes. When allowed to grow in to a large clump it creates a bizarre shaped ball.

Cultivation: Protect the plant from direct burning sun in summer, especially during hot periods, but in winter, find a luminous place. I place them in location where they get early dappled sunlight and afternoon shade. The plant is surprisingly cold-hardy.

My very cheap misting system. Battery lasts 2 months replace every 6 weeks.



pegs are 25mm or 1"
