- Identification (9566): Walter Till (2011-11-07) =Tillandsia recurvata
- There seem to bee TWO bracts below the flower and hence it is T. recurvata. If only one bract, then it is T. virescens (syn.: T. cordobensis)
- Add Note (9566): Greg Dauss (2011-11-07) - Interesting white flower form. I have never seen it before. (Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
- Add Note (9566): Andrew Flower (2011-11-11) - Thanks, Walter. Looking at last year's inflorescences, seems to be one peduncle bract and one floral bract. Does that count as one below the flower or two? (Sent: brom-l@science.uu.nl)
