Still grow a few of these along with the orchids. I have a great reference book for these in my library, "Tillandsia" by Paul T. Isley III.

If you sign up for Tropiflora's weekly special sale, you can copy their habitat and growing information, plus photos of verified species, for a few each week. Eventually you'll have information on lots of species.
In the last year I've seen species I bought from them over 30 years ago, have lost the tag, and haven't seen offered since. It's nice to know what they are.

Very nice!
I kind of let these go after my mom died as my mom was the one who got me into them. I just looked and a few survived so maybe I should get them some friends and make it a memorial.

Well my Tillys have survived and some have even grown a bit - a miracle I think!
This one is under a lump of lava rock - it bloomed last year:
These are tied into trees:
And I spotted these in the garden centre the other day - they'll be going into the trees as well:
