Named for its striking tricolor inflorescence, Tillandsia tricolor is a captivating epiphyte native to the woods of Mexico and Central America. This stemless beauty, discovered by Schlechtendal & Chamisso in 1831, brings a vibrant splash of color to its forest home.

Key features:

  • Dense rosette form, averaging 30 cm in diameter and 25-30 cm in height
  • Linear-triangular, long-attenuate blades ranging from yellow-green to red
  • Tricolor inflorescence featuring cherry, canary, and indigo hues
  • Ability to produce numerous offsets, sometimes up to a dozen

The T. tricolor specimen in the image showcases its distinctive form—a symmetrical rosette of long, slender leaves radiating outward. The plant's base appears bulbous, with broader leaves transitioning to fine, needle-like tips. The color gradient from deep green at the base to lighter green at the tips gives the plant a vibrant, energetic appearance. While not in bloom, one can imagine the spectacular display when its tricolor inflorescence emerges.

Collector's note: This species is often confused with T. punctulata, but keen observers will note T. tricolor's stiffer leaves and more chartaceous texture. Its ability to withstand stronger light and longer periods of dryness makes it a hardy yet visually striking addition to any Tillandsia collection.

Care tips: T. tricolor thrives in bright light conditions but can adapt to indirect sun. It prefers high humidity and good air circulation. Water thoroughly by submerging or running water over the plant, allowing it to dry completely between waterings. Fertilize sparingly to promote growth and vibrant coloration.

Ideal for:

  • Tillandsia enthusiasts seeking colorful varieties
  • Indoor gardeners with bright, airy spaces
  • Botanical art installations
  • Xeriscaping projects

Display recommendation: Mount T. tricolor on a piece of driftwood or in a hanging glass globe to showcase its radial symmetry and allow for proper air circulation.

Bring the vivid hues of Central American forests into your space with Tillandsia tricolor —a living sculpture that combines hardy growth with a dazzling color palette, promising to be the centerpiece of any airplant collection.

Fine, Be Careful How You Mount It
Size: 6ft Cord, Color: 20W_Black
Good power strip with the functionality that I needed. 12 plugs and usb. Be careful how you mount it because the plugs on one side are upside down. You may have to buy thin pigtails which I did.

So far so good...
Size: 10ft Cord, Color: 20W_Black
I bought this for a work space where coworkers kept stealing the charging blocks needed for essential equipment to use for their phones and unplugging essential equipment to plug in their phones. So far after a month the issues leading to it's purchase have not returned and the unit hasn't as yet developed any of it's own. I'll report back if the latter changes within the year.

Decent install power strip
Style: 20W_USB-C, Size: 6FT
I really like this search strip as I installed the inside of my RV the only problem I have with it is if you were using bulky transformer style plugs like that of a iMac laptop, charger or other big transformers, you will not be able to use the USB outlets in the center and I don’t know if that’s by design to limit current flow, but it sucks.
