Tillandsia need a long time to bloom. Reproduction is by seeds or by offsets called "pups". A single plant could have up to a dozen pups. Tillandsia are epiphytes and need no soil because water and nutrients are absorbed through the leaves. The roots are used as anchors only. Some tillandsia are so-called myrmecophyte that live in symbiosis with ant colonies. They offer the insects living room and sometimes food, while the ants keep predators away from them. \\ =====Additional Information==== ---- - They can only be bred to the same species. \\ ---- \\ This wiki contains graphics/pictures by [[http://flowergame.net/|flowergame.net]].
