Native to the dry slopes and rocky outcrops of Peru and Ecuador, it produces a fountain of very fine, thread-like leaves that are densely covered in silvery-white trichomes. The overall effect is closer to fiber art than to a conventional plant: a cascading mound of pale, velvety filaments that can exceed 12 inches in length on mature specimens, making it one of the more architecturally imposing tillandsias in regular cultivation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen it blooms, the white flowers carry a noticeable fragrance, a quality that distinguishes straminea from the majority of tillandsias and makes it particularly rewarding to grow. The combination of the extraordinary silver form and the scented bloom event means straminea earns its keep in a collection even between flowering cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToo much moisture held against those fine leaves leads to rot, the main risk with this species.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Langlois","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44052440481880,"sku":"158091863","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/dragonflyfarmlanglois.com\/products\/tillandsia-straminea-air-plant","provider":"Dragonfly Farm \u0026 Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
