Distributed from the southeastern USA to Mexico. A grassy species with thin, filiform leaves that grows in clumps. It prefers humid habitats like swamps and hammocks.
An epiphytic fern with two distinct frond types: sterile shield fronds that attach to the substrate and collect debris, and fertile fronds that are forked and antler-shaped, growing up to 90cm long. Forms colonies through vegetative reproduction. Produces spores on the undersides of fertile fronds.
A small saxicolous or epiphytic species from Mexico. It has succulent, tapering leaves and forms clumps.
A Tillandsia characterized by a bulbous pseudobulb base and long, twisted, tentacle-like leaves. Native to tropical regions from Mexico to Brazil, found in mangrove thickets, open woods, and along riverbanks. The swollen base often houses ant colonies in a mutualistic relationship—the ants provide nutrients while receiving shelter. Blooms with cherry-red bracts and violet tubular flowers. One of the few Tillandsias tolerant of higher humidity and lower airflow, making it suitable for terrariums.
