Have been cleaning my growcamp yesterday and got to see the condition of my older tillandsia. Have actually been neglectful of it..it just gets its water if my orchids gets water otherwise left hanging on the cube grid, has quietly endured our sizzling hot summers and our erratic winter weather, and the ongoing drought.

I removed it from its grid..and got to appreciate how big this one has grown over the past two years! A very happy looking tilly indeed. Too bad I do not know which cultivar it is, but it is one tough cookie!

Photo in 2011, when I used to hang it on one of my garden stands:

Moved it inside the growcamp in 2012:

I placed it on top of this hollow block while I was cleaning the growcamp....I can better see now just how big tilly has grown!

Have put it back on its old perch..just love how this tilly has evolved.
