    This little chap is a great addition to my collection, I love the miniature Tillandsias. It arrived very quickly and very well packaged for its safety. Great price too. Thank you! ?

    A very miniature version of the usual form with a subtle lavender hue that I understand intensifies with stronger light levels. The leaves are much narrower than its larger counterpart and some leaves have a nice twist of curve to them which gives them a less symmetrical rosette. The leaves are tough and can tolerate being dropped (by accident) with no damage! This is perfect for those with limited space. I look forward to seeing this little fellow bloom. Very well packed and labelled as always.

    Thank you Alex and Graham for another healthy, thoughtfully packed airplant. This one looks like a miniature version of T. aeranthos ‘Nigra’. Lovely purple-ish hue. I’ll do my best to let it become a nice clump! Thanks again!
