Tillandsia 'Tina'

Tillandsia 'Tina' is a striking cultivar known for its substantial size and vibrant, multicoloured bloom spike. It forms a broad, arching rosette of soft, lightly trichomed leaves, and produces a tall, showy inflorescence with a brilliant combination of orange, yellow, and purple. Its dramatic floral display and robust form make it ideal for mounting or prominent placement in bright, airy settings.

Distinctive features:

• Large rosette-forming Tillandsia with arching grey-green leaves
• Inflorescence is multicoloured—orange, yellow and purple—on a tall central spike
  
• Strong upright to semi-arching habit when mounted

Care Tips:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect to filtered sunlight; can tolerate some direct exposure
• Water: Mist 2–3 times weekly or soak briefly; dry fully within a few hours
• Humidity: Moderate to high humidity with good airflow is ideal
• Media: Mount on wood, cork, or stone; best displayed upright to support the inflorescence
• Temperature: Grows best in 18–30°C; protect from frost
• Fertiliser: Use diluted tillandsia fertiliser monthly during active growth

Additional Notes:

• Stands out in large displays or as a mounted centrepiece
• Produces one of the more vivid and diverse inflorescences among cultivated Tillandsias
• Uncommon in cultivation, often appreciated by collectors for its bold floral spike
• Not toxic to pets
