Tillandsia flabellata 'Giant Red' Honduras SC Size:Offset and the leaves pale greenFrom Honduras, a larger form of flabellata with green to reddish leaves in a 24 inch, loose rosette. The inflorescence is very large, candelabra like with about ten very long branches on a short rachis, each up to 12 inches long and lasts for months in good color. In nature this species is typically sub mesic, growing in shaded forests with more or less regular water and humidity. This clone was first imported by Steve Corealle of Miami. *VIPP plants
