Excellent quality overall
The Curly Slims sold by Bird Rock Tropicals are of very good quality. Unfortunately, one of the plants I purchased was already starting to develop an inflorescence from the center when it arrived.
Mark Dimmitt
Tillandsia Curly Slim (T. intermedia x streptophylla) - Dimmitt Hybrid
$7.50 - $32.50
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!

Very pleasing form!
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.
