Field Notes

Description:

epiphytic plant growing horizontally on tree trunk

Habitat:

rainforest

Notes:

I spotted this Tillandsia while hiking trails in Iwokrama Forest Reserve. It's one of the nicest specimens I've seen as many grow too high in trees to get a good look. I grow these plants at home as well and they thrive with a daily misting and have flowered for me numerous times.
