Epic tillandsia spike. I grow these Medusa heads for the cool pseudo bulbs not really the flowers but sometimes I get a flower and man is it over the top. These odd plants are in the grass family so that’s the reason it looks like pink and purple wheat.

Plant of the Day

Tuesday 24 January 2023

From Mexico and South America Tillandsia species (air plants) are members of the Bromeliaceae (bromeliad family). The plants do not root in soil but use short, wiry roots to attach themselves to branches, cliff-faces, and even overhead wires. The leaves are coated in specialised water-absorbent cells called trichomes which in some species are so dense they give the plants a silvery appearance. The trichomes are the main method of obtaining moisture from atmosphere.
