Discover Tillandsia aeranthos, a captivating species that brings a touch of South American canopies to your home.

 Size Inches
Small 1"-2"
Medium 2"-3"
Large 3"-4"

 

Key features:

  • Vivid coloration: Bright lime-green foliage that stands out in any display
  • Compact form: Tightly arranged leaves forming an attractive, spiky rosette
  • Stunning blooms: Produces eye-catching blue-purple flowers with contrasting red bracts
  • Adaptable nature: Thrives in a variety of environments, from near sea level to higher altitudes
  • Natural clustering: Often found growing in small groups, perfect for creating airplant colonies

Appearance: T. aeranthos forms a symmetrical rosette of stiff, outward-pointing leaves. The foliage exhibits a vibrant lime-green color, creating a striking visual impact. When in bloom, it produces a compact inflorescence featuring vivid blue-purple flowers emerging from red bracts, offering a beautiful contrast to the green foliage.

Collector's Note: While similar in appearance to T. bergeri, T. aeranthos is distinguished by its unique flowering characteristics. In its natural habitat, it shows a preference for mature tipa trees (Tipuana tipu), often forming small clusters of plants—a trait that can be replicated in cultivation for stunning displays.

Care tip: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant green color. Water 2-3 times a week by misting thoroughly or soaking for 20-30 minutes, ensuring the plant dries completely within 4 hours. Good air circulation is essential to mimic its natural epiphytic growing conditions.

Ideal for:

  • Collectors seeking to recreate South American airplant habitats
  • Those who appreciate plants with bold, structural forms
  • Enthusiasts looking to create clustered Tillandsia displays
  • Designers wanting to add pops of bright green to their plant arrangements

Display recommendation: The spiky form of T. aeranthos makes it perfect for standalone displays or as part of grouped arrangements. Consider mounting several specimens on a piece of driftwood or cork bark to recreate its natural clustering habit. Its bright green color also makes it an excellent contrast piece when paired with silver-leaved Tillandsia species.

Bring a piece of South American canopies into your space with Tillandsia aeranthos. Experience the joy of nurturing this adaptable and visually striking species, and anticipate the breathtaking display when its blue-purple blooms emerge, adding a splash of exotic color to your airplant collection.

Perfect shorts!
Size: 30, Color: Athens Mid Short - Medum Indigo, Size: 30, Color: Athens Mid Short - Medum Indigo
I was worried these shorts wouldn’t cover enough of the butt area or that I wasn’t thin enough to wear them especially since most of the reviews are from thinner people. but OMG, they’re perfect. I’m 5 4, 152 Lbs and size 30 is absolutely perfect. Size 29 would be small for me.

Fantastic Boots!

Completely satisfied with these boots. True to size, well made, comfortable from the get-go; not break in needed. Waterproof- really. The Red Suede has withstood a nasty winter season & still looks great. Good traction. I like the ankle height which looks good with long, mid length pants & leggings. I love the easy slip on/off aspect..made getting ready for dog walking easy. I 100%recommend!

Definitely worth the price
Size: 6.5, Color: Black/Black
Absolutely love these boots! I originally bought them to wear in NYC in December & they did not disappoint. They were comfortable, cute, durable and worked well in the slush/snow. The traction on the bottom is also nice! They kept me warm with wool socks. I wear them almost daily now. Perfect for everyday. easy to wear with variety of outfits. Good every day shoe.
