This seems to be the place to bring my Tillandsia questions, So, here goes:
These tillys were here when we bought our place here on Big Island almost 4 years ago. I'm certain they were placed by the previous owner, and are not native. It's been almost 4 years now and they have grown in size and I'm sure their numbers have increased also. But, I have never seen a flower produced, and they seem to be spaced too far apart to be from offsets.
This is the planting as it is now.
More of a close up to see more detail. Originally, the Tillys were about the size of the three little ones spaced across the top of the colony.
This one had beeen growing on the tip of a dead branch. It was the largest of all of them. It fell off the branch tip which has since weathered away. I picked it up and stuck it into the top of the Spanisn Moss just below the main group. It seems to be thriving there. It is amost a foot across tip to tip of the leaves. It has shown no sign of producing a flower. I've also since learned that the Spanish Moss is also a Tilly.
So, my questions:
1.
Can anyone place a name on these?
2.
Can they be expected to flower?
3.
Any other info about these Mystery Tillandsias?
