Tillandsia ionantha Rubra

Tillandsia ionantha is a staple of most airplant collections.  It is a smaller compact plant with a huge variety of forms.  They like plenty of bright light and can tolerate dry periods.  This is a polular choice for indoor displays.

Before they bloom and in bright light the leaves blush red all over and a bright violet flower will emerge from the centre.

Rubra is a form of T ionantha, the leaves have a flattened open shape at the top.
