Tillandsia ionantha var. vanhyningii is a distinctive form of the well-known T. ionantha, native to Oaxaca, Mexico. Unlike the typical ionantha, which forms tight, singular rosettes, this variety grows caulescently, producing a visible stem along which multiple rosettes develop over time. It grows on exposed cliffs and limestone outcrops in bright, dry environments. The leaves are short, silvery-green, and densely trichomed, blushing red to pink near flowering. Violet tubular flowers emerge from the terminal rosettes, and with age, the plant can form a dramatic, layered column of stacked growth.

Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers bright, filtered light; tolerates some direct morning sun
  • Water: Mist 2–3 times weekly or soak occasionally; allow full drying after watering
  • Humidity: Performs well in moderate humidity with good air circulation
  • Media: Mount on cork, stone, or driftwood to support vertical growth
  • Temperature: Best grown in 16–30°C; protect from cold and frost
  • Fertiliser: Use diluted tillandsia fertiliser monthly during active growth
