We have a great place called Hawaiian botanicals that brings in all sorts of exotic bromeliads for really reasonable prices. So I guess I get spoiled that way. But it seems tillandsias are everywhere these days. It sounds like you got quite the haul of plants at your place. I do hope you post about them!!!Louishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219272603726629982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-21671357328744043152013-01-23T10:25:26.559-08:002013-01-23T10:25:26.559-08:00Thanks!

At this time of the year tending to things inside is also part of the coping mechanisms to get through the rest of winter. While the grey skies have returned for us, the nighttime lows are back into a much more comfortable range. Hopefully I can start bringing things back outside really soon!Louishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219272603726629982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-30787893729082890972013-01-23T10:05:53.985-08:002013-01-23T10:05:53.985-08:00The xerographica is beautiful!

There's a nursery specializing in these plants nearby, which I stroll through occasionally - I can afford only their "special offers" as the more unusual plants are priced upwards of $100. For $100 last week I got 2 Hebes, 2 Correa, 1 Leucadendron, and 1 Chorizema 'Bush Flame'. I broke my cardinal rule about buying in 1-gallon sizes or smaller on the last one but I really couldn't pass it up.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428399855033732471.post-13152818975381416202013-01-23T08:50:06.549-08:002013-01-23T08:50:06.549-08:00I love your new Tillandsia.
