I have a miniature Den. oligophyllum growing on hygrolon and it likes the medium also. It is always supporting a lot of tiny flowers.
The Haraella is very very nice and the tillandsia is unique with the bloom coming from the center.

Oh wow, nice Tillandsia. I used to have one, but I bought it from a vendor that went out of business. I have wanted to get it again. Where did you get yours from?
Nice work on the Haraella.

Tindomul, there are Tillandsias pretty much growing all over the Florida, but I think I bought this one because of the different way it grows, long snaky one, from nursery at Key West:-) |

Many thanks, I must say, got into mini's only in August, but they are doing so so great for me, I have 3 haraellas, all 3 have 3 spikes, they all started with one spike, than added another, than another, and all spikes still producing new blooms. My Lepanthopsis astrophora's plants are insane spiking like crazy, I counted just now on one 8 spikes, all slowly opening, Scaphosepalum rapax mounted on hygrolon for less than 2 months has now some 10 unopened new spikes, Bulbophyllum rosary beads the same, and I can go on and on, mini's rocks!!! |

Love the Haraella!
I just bought one in bud at the weekend. Really hoping it will like me and grow well like yours.

Yup, thats the one I had and killed (dried to death). I don't know how easily it can be found online. I hope easily. Thanks again for posting it.
