Tillandsia bulbosa

A fan favorite, Tillandsia bulbosa has smooth green leaves that have less white trichomes then other varieties. Because of this the usually enjoy more water and shorter watering periods. A good 15 min soak every 1-2 weeks should do the trick. They have a thin red flower stock that comes out of center. When leaves get more red its going to flower and usually will produce pups around base afterwards.
