airplants, more tillandsias






Top to Bottom: Tillandsia ixioides,Tillandsia vernicosa "Tall" and Tillandsia ionantha "Fat Boy" on a candlestick holder

I mail-ordered these. Tillandsia "Fat Boy" was the only one out of the three that wasn't infested with black mites. Again, I used baby shampoo to rid the buggers. Ixioides will have yellow flowers. It's got the toughest leaves I've encountered so far with Tillandsias, very rigid and painful if you're not careful. I'm waiting for a red-orange flower from the vernicosa.
