Tillandsia caput-medusae has been working on this gorgeous inflorescence for weeks now I think. Finally got to see the first actual flower 🤩

#tillandsia #airplants #plants #bloomscrolling #マストドン園芸部

I think this was Tillandsia fuchsii var. fuchsii. I need to figure out how to take proper pictures of plants that are this long 😅

Tillandsia caput-medusae with an impressive inflorescence 🤩

(I have to find a better way to take photos because it’s hard to see what’s going on sometimes with this background)

Totally forgot the species. Such an interesting, long and skinny form.

Hoping what I've read about tillandsia dying after they bloom is not true.🤞

A bunch of tillandsias going to bloom soon

There was a plant event at the Kōnan near my house. I think I exercised plenty of restraint.

Tillandsia stricta (probably; I take all the tags off my tillandsias so it’s hard to tell 😅) blooming

Also T. usneoides with some very subtle flowers

My initial makeshift air plant set-up for the small and tiny plants left after buying a selection and giving away the biggest and nicest ones as gifts. Sadly, a couple of the tenderest have already suffered some loss through dehydration. As always, only the plants that can survive me will remain in my collection.

The idea is to pour distilled water into the plate to be absorbed and evaporated slowly by the terra cotta; I'll also mist with well water (and rain water when I can get it). Additional white holders printed by my partner will eventually raise some more plants and add interest.

Here’s a better look at the entire plant 🐉

Tillandsia ‘Cotton Candy’ perhaps at peak bloom?

#tillandsia #airplants #plants #bloomscrolling

I went to a rare plant event that happened to be (just barely) walking distance from my house. Then, within walking distance from the event is a well known gardening center, so I stopped by that too.

Gotta stimulate that local economy 💸

Afterwards I checked out Tillandsia Garden in Akihabara. They had some gorgeous plants 🤩

I ended up taking home these three:

T. ionantha var. van-hyningii
T. fillifolia
T. bulbosa

Just a day later and the inflorescences are already noticeably longer 🚀

Stocked up on veggies for the first time in a while

Tillandsias as far as the eye can see (if you crouch down in one specific spot in my house)

My daughter helped test the new pressure sprayer I got for watering my tillandsias 💦

Tillandsia tequilana (Bromeliaceae): A #NewSpecies from Jalisco, Mexico
http://novataxa.blogspot.com/2024/07/tillandsia.html

"As a result of botanical explorations for the project #Bromeliaceae of #Mexico, we collected individuals of a #Tillandsia species at the foothills of the mountain #Chiquihuitillo, located in the municipality of Tequila, in the state of #Jalisco... a careful and detailed examination... allowed us to determine that this plant should be considered as a new species that is here proposed"

tree in kea'au town completely colonized by #AirPlants (#tillandsia #epiphyte). this is one of the reasons why i'm a little bit terrified of bringing air plants home!
