Tillandsia mallemontii is a highlt scented species from the Brazilian rainforests where it grows on Trees an scrub from 0 to 1000m above sea level.
Tillandsia mallemonti is similar in appearance to T. recurvata with thin whispy foliage. However when mallemontii flowers you will not be mistaken. the flowers are a delightful purple color and the scent is one of the most delicious of all the Tillandsia's.
Tillandsia mallemonotii is easy to grow, requiring bright light with protection from hot sun. It likes a very regular wetting with quick drying. The plant lends itself to being hung from wire but can also be mounted.
I have some very nice near flowering size clumps that are already hung on wire.
