Tillandsia retorta – Small clump

Tillandsia Retorta is a rare, highly sought after airplant amongst serious collectors.  The gentle arching of its stiff leaves results in an intricately woven maze in larger clumps.

A member of the Diaphoranthema subgenus, this is a true miniature airplant.  As with all the airplants in the subgenus diaphoranthema, Tillandsia Retorta is self pollinating and can be propagated from its own seed.
