Tillandsia 'Bochil' is a natural hybrid, (T. seleriana x schiedeana) that was found in Chiapas, Mexico by Renate Ehlers.  She kindly shared offsets with several growers in the US  and that's how It was introduced into cultivation   The inflorescence is rose-colored with either white or violet flowers.  The leaves are covered with dense white scales appearing fuzzy.  Six months ago, we moved these from the greenhouse to the shade house and they have grown more vigorously, responding to the cooler night temperatures.
