Nice photos Lin!
I think most of us here in FL take T. recurvata for granted like we do T. usneoides. (Spanish Moss) as both are everywhere. I had lived here 20 years before I gave it any thought. After becoming interested in the plant I set out to see it flower. Seeing the actual flower took some time and close inspections, but I did achieve that goal.
Another interesting note on the recurvata is that medicinally a extract from the plant has shown the ability to cause death of tumor cells.
