Tillandsia kammii

Tillandsia kammii is one of only 4 Tillandsia species that are protected by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). As such, T. kammii is rarely offered for sale. T. kammii inhabit regions of  tropical savanna in Honduras and El Salvador. This plant features soft, velvety leaves that blush with shades of pink and apricot when grown in high light conditions or just before blooming. The bloom of T. kammii is a short, bright red inflorescence from which violet flowers arise.

Tillandsia kammii enjoys bright indirect light and submerging them in water should be avoided as this plant is also prone to rot. This species of Tillandsia has an abundance of trichomes which makes it extremely effective at absorbing moisture from the environment. As such, watering can be done through misting about 3 times a week or more often if the air in your home is very dry.

Fertilizing is not necessary; however, it encourages faster growth, off-setting, blushing, and blooming! To fertilize, we recommend misting your specimen with a foliar fertilizer such as our Foliar Feed at least once a month.

Your specimen will be about 4 inches in width or height.
