A robust hemiepiphyte described in recent years, historically confused with other large species in Panama. It features large, pinnatifid leaf blades that can develop fenestrations near the midrib. The spathe is distinctively pale green to white. It is primarily found in the Coclé province of Panama.
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.
A hemiepiphyte from the western Amazon. The species name refers to the golden or yellowish color of the pinnules (leaf segments) when dried or possibly the sap, though living specimens have green leaves. The leaves are pinnatifid and can become quite large.
A green-leaved mesic species from the wettest tropical habitats. Forms rosettes of silver-green leaves and produces violet flowers. Requires higher humidity than many common Tillandsia species. Best grown in greenhouse or terrarium conditions.
A small epiphytic species native to Colombia and Ecuador. Often classified under the genus Racinaea, it has soft, green leaves and prefers cool, moist environments.
Endemic to Colombia. This species inhabits cloud forests and is characterized by its thin leaves and specific floral structure.
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.
An epiphytic species native to Colombia, typically growing in wet tropical biomes.
A pseudobulbous species native to Costa Rica, known for its distinct castaneous (chestnut-colored) bulbous base.
A small, high-altitude species native to the Amazonian slopes of the Andes in Ecuador, featuring dark violet petals.
A natural hybrid between T. complanata and T. ionochroma, described by Werner Rauh in 1977. The leaves are green with violet spots. The plant produces several axillary arching inflorescences similar to T. complanata, but with bipinnate and narrow cylindric spikes. Found growing at 2800 m in cloud forest environments.
A terrestrial species prized for its large, velvety, heart-shaped leaves featuring prominent silver-white venation. Leaves can reach 40-60 cm in length and have a dark green to nearly black coloration. The inflorescence is inconspicuous with a greenish spathe and spadix. New leaves emerge with a bronze or reddish tint.
A species endemic to Ecuador, found in subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and subtropical or tropical high-altitude shrubland. The species is threatened by habitat loss.
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 delicate terrestrial bromeliad characterized by narrow leaves with scalloped margins and soft spines. Originally described as Cryptanthus microglazioui in 1998 and transferred to Rokautskyia in 2017. The specific epithet refers to its resemblance to Cryptanthus glazioui but in smaller form. Develops a branching stem reaching approximately 15 cm. Endemic to the Atlantic Forest of Espírito Santo state, Brazil.
An epiphytic species endemic to Ecuador, described by Harry Luther in 1991 and named after Jerry Raack, a prominent U.S. bromeliad collector who discovered it in 1990. The plant has an open rosette shape with soft green leaves that are discolorous, purplish on the underside, often with a waxy powder on the surface. Under high light intensity and cool temperatures, the upper leaf surface develops a deep maroon coloration. The inflorescence is nearly white, contrasting sharply against the dark wine-red foliage at bloom time. The flowers do not open and are likely pollinated by hummingbirds.
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.
