Fast-growing rosette of densely clustered silvery sea-green leaves that come to fine needle-like tips. Hybrid ofTillandsia stricta(native to South America and Trinidad) andTillandsia recurvifolia(native to Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, and Brazil). Leaves turn silvery purple when blooming begins; broad, light pink spikes deepen to bright pink as the white flowers open. Enhanced with non-toxic floral tint to mimic flowering color or to provide contrast.
