Tillandsia native to Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador . Native to dry areas, this splendid, slow-growing species clings to the branches of trees located high up, and thus receives intense light.
Its silvery leaves, wider at the base, curve and twist as they grow, giving this plant an extremely impressive appearance. The flowers, for their part, are carried on green spikes produced in large numbers, themselves distributed along a large red stalk.
