Description

scaposa air plant Tillandsia - scaposa ex. CCDescription: Tillandsia scaposa grows in nature at high altitudes (1,500 1,950m) in the forests of Guatemala. Because of this, it enjoys being grown at cooler temperatures. The plant is often mistaken for T. ionantha, and was once listed as a cultivar of Ionantha. It is now distinguished as it's own species and can be identified by its bloom scape, which is short and has distichous, imbricate floral bracts. This bloom is a washed out pink with mauve

Description: Tillandsia scaposa grows in nature at high altitudes (1,500-1,950m) in the forests of Guatemala. Because of this, it enjoys being grown at cooler temperatures. The plant is often mistaken for T. ionantha, and was once listed as a cultivar of Ionantha. It is now distinguished as it's own species and can be identified by its bloom scape, which is short and has distichous, imbricate floral bracts. This bloom is a washed out pink with mauve flowers. T. scaposa's foliage generally stays greener when in bloom and will only blush pink when in high light. This species does not do well in a humid environment, and will tend to rot.

Position: Growing this species indoors is possible. However you will need to make sure it is next to a window with bright light, and good air flow. This species will thrive outside under bright, but indirect sunlight. Under a tree, verandah or deck, or in a shadehouse are all great locations for this plant. Ensure the location you choose has good air flow to help the plant dry out between watering. This species can withstand low temperatures, however it must be protected from frost. This species can be grown suspended or mounted on a solid substrate that does not retain water (timber, cork bark, etc). You can attach this plant to the surface using coated wire, fishing line, or an adhesive such as silicone, hot glue, or no-more nails. Do not cover the base of the plant with moss or any other substrate as it may rot.

Watering: As a general rule, a plant in a hot position will require watering every 2-3 days. In a dark, humid environment watering once per week can often be adequate. This can be achieved by misting or dunking the plant. If outdoors, a hose can be used. When dunking a plant, leave submerged in a bowl of water for 10-20 minutes before shaking off excess water. Air plants love to dry out completely between each watering and must never have water sitting at their base as this will cause the plant to rot.

Fertilisation: We recommend fertilising your Air Plants once a fortnight in the warmer months and once a month through winter. We sell Air Plant Fertiliser in our "Accessories" section. Simply give the plant one or two sprays after watering.

Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape depending on the season. Flowering plants are sent when available.

A side to Civil Rights
Format: Paperback
A Civil Rights victory through purely peaceful means never seemed completely likely to me and this book is certainly an eye opener and contains information that every US History and US Government teacher should know. Rights are not preserved unless men are willing to stand up to those who seek to oppress. In this case, many black men in the heart of Dixie finally, and near spontaneously banded together and stopped the KKK and forced the local and state governments to finally acknowledge that the natural born rights that John Locke wrote of in the Second Treatise of Government and that the Founders and Framers of our country adopted applied to all men, regardless of race.
