A small species forming a distinctive spherical rosette of fine, needle-like green leaves radiating outward from a central point, typically 7 to 10 cm in diameter. Predominantly saxicolous, growing on cliff faces, and rarely epiphytic. Produces a single large tubular red flower from the center of the rosette. Leaves may blush orange to red prior to flowering. Taxonomically close to T. funckiana, sharing similar growth form and flower morphology.
Endemic to the high Andes of Colombia. This species resembles Tillandsia turneri but is smaller, growing in sub-paramo vegetation.
A large tank-type epiphytic bromeliad with countless narrow, silvery gray leaves and a tall inflorescence with bright red bracts bearing long, ribbon-like tips. It is native to high-elevation oak-pine forests in southern Mexico. The species has been the subject of ecological research regarding its host preferences and arthropod communities.
A rare lithophytic bromeliad endemic to the southern Espinhaço Range in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Forms rosettes with narrow leaves and produces compound inflorescences with orange-yellow flowers. Named after botanist Apparicio P. Duarte. Originally described as Cryptanthus duartei.
A rare species endemic to Costa Rican cloud forests. It features large, pinnatifid, and perforated leaves. It is the true species often confused with the "Esqueleto" clone in cultivation. It differs from Monstera adansonii by its larger size, pinnatifid margins, and high-elevation habitat.
A compact terrestrial or lithophytic species distinguished by its oval to teardrop-shaped leaves that lack the typical basal sinus found in most Anthurium species. Leaves are dark green with silver venation, reaching 15-25 cm in length. The leaf surface has a velvety texture. Produces inconspicuous inflorescences.
A terrestrial species characterized by large, broadly heart-shaped leaves with prominent white venation against a dark olive-green to nearly black background. Leaves can reach 30-60 cm in length with a velvety texture. The petioles are distinctively quadrangular (four-sided) in cross-section, which distinguishes it from the similar A. crystallinum. New leaves emerge with a bronze to burgundy coloration.
A high-altitude caulescent species. Despite its specific name "nana" (dwarf), it can form long stems. It requires cool temperatures and high humidity but constant airflow.
A large terrestrial species with impressive heart-shaped leaves that can reach over 90 cm in length. Leaves have a velvety texture with prominent white to pale green venation against a dark green background. New leaves emerge with a coppery-red coloration. The petioles are thick and can reach 60 cm or more.
A large, tank-type species native to Colombia. It has dark, maroon-tinged leaves and a unique pendulous inflorescence. It is adapted to cool, humid cloud forest environments.
A high-elevation tank bromeliad found in the Andes. It has a robust rosette and a branched inflorescence. Adapted to cool, misty habitats.
A natural hybrid between T. complanata and T. stenoura, described in 2024. It is a large epiphyte found in the high Andes of Ecuador, combining features of both parents.
An epiphytic species found in the cloud forests of Colombia and Venezuela. It forms a rosette of flexible leaves and produces a compact, globose inflorescence with pink bracts.
An epiphytic species known for its exceptionally long, pendant, corrugated leaves that can exceed 90 cm in length under optimal conditions, with some specimens reaching over 2 meters. Leaves are lance-shaped with deep horizontal ridges giving a quilted appearance. New leaves emerge bronze-colored before maturing to dark green.
