Tillandsia Xerographica

Tillandsia Xerographica is the Queen of airplants!  It is easy to fall in love with this beautiful tillandsia - it has silvery green leaves, wide at the base, that become narrow and curl in towards the tip of the leaves.

Xerographicas are identified with the xeric group of tillandsias.  They have adapted to thrive in dry environments, producing denser trichomes which help the plant soak up nutrients and moisture in the air.  They are therefore more drought tolerant than other tillandsias.
