If temperatures in your area are below 40° - add a UniHeat Pack
Another one of Mark Dimmitt's great Tillandsia hybrids. This one is T. intermedia X streptophylla. Grows tall, slim and very curly. It will produces offsets on the old bloom spike as well as at the base of the plant. Very popular hybrid!
The curlyness of the leaves will vary as the plant gets more or less water. When fully hydrated, the leaves will become straighter. As the plant dries out the leaves will get more curly!
I have been looking at this hybrid for a while and took advantage of a sale. I ordered a size small and received a plant that is about 8"x 8" (depending on how curled it is). It was shipped across the country during a week of cold weather with a heat pack and it arrived in excellent condition. The plants at Bird Rock are a little bit pricey but they are always top notch.
I was totally amazed at this beautiful plant, so curly and blooming. This is one of the best quality tillandsias I've ever purchased online. I've bought many bromeliads from Birdrock and haven't been disappointed in any. I also live across the country and all products are shipped right away and packaged well.
