⚠️ our new of the month is Tillandsia kammii!
as every month, you will receive a second plant of this type free of charge with every plant of this species.
Tillandsia kammii is a remarkable species prized for its compact growth, dense silvery trichomes, and elegant appearance. The species was named in honor of Ron Kamm, a renowned bromeliad enthusiast and collector whose work contributed significantly to the cultivation and appreciation of Tillandsias around the world.
This species is endemic to Ecuador, where it grows epiphytically in dry inter-Andean valleys and montane forests. The dense covering of trichomes gives the plant its attractive silver-white appearance and helps it efficiently capture moisture from fog and rainfall. During flowering, T. kammii produces a striking inflorescence with bright pink to red bracts and delicate violet flowers, creating a beautiful contrast against its silvery foliage.
💧 care tips:
* prefers bright light and can tolerate gentle direct sun
* water regularly, allowing the plant to dry completely between waterings
* thrives with excellent air circulation and moderate humidity
A highly sought-after species that combines rarity, beauty, and adaptability—making it a favorite among collectors and Tillandsia enthusiasts alike.
