En culture
Tillandsia originating from the high mountains of the Andes, in Peru . Slow growing, this species, exceptional in the size and density of its silvery scales (trichomes), is cultivated on the roofs of its owners, in its country of origin, because it evokes a snowy tree. Its silhouette, which lengthens with age, is very impressive! It does not fear growing in full sun and in a very dry atmosphere.
Tectorum 'White Fuzzy' is a cultivar with even whiter and longer trichomes than the type species of Tillandsia tectorum .
Spray water only very rarely, every 3 weeks to a month depending on the humidity of the air.
