Well lookie lookie! Here are some of the different ways that I have attached my tillandsias to show them off and grow/flower them... Growing with a cacti ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Tied to a tree with nylon stocking ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Twins very happy in clam shell ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Glued into broken pot ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Tied to stick which will be tied to bigger tree ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Attached to piece of bark/then onto support ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Glued in shell hung on chain ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Same again ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Suspended and flowering ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Tied to interesting driftwood ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) another shell get together. ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) The hanging shell trick again ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Flowering ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Attached to a rock ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Tied to a stick ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) A happy group tied to a stick/branch ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Will that be enough? remember...be careful what you wish for, it might happen!
chocolate, YOU'RE THE ONE..... My fav if the one in the bottom pic on the right.. Always love seeing your pics. Thanks.
Those are all wonderful Chocolate! I really need to try again with some of these. I gotta figure out the right location.
Chocolate, I tried to put patches on your post but I think I put them on you in general. They are appropriate for about anything you post, but inspired to send by this one in particular!
Beautiful! I've got some broken clay pots laying around that I couldn't throw out....now I know what I want to try! Thanks for the pics!
"broken clay pots'...what about trying one of these,great recycling idea. Use for broken pot ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Put the broken part inside the larger part, I know that the pots don't always break into convenient pieces but maybe use other pieces from other pots, I would like to see some other ideas, does anyone have any?
PP, thankyou for that cute sunflower...love it. Barb.. this is what that tillandsia[the one you like] is doing now ( photo / image / picture from chocolate's Garden ) Same plant different location, it seems that the flower is not complete yet,I am not sure what happens after the flower, I think the plant will die and there will be a new pup around the side somewhere, that's what the others do.
I agree with you. Allot of times I stop things from blooming and they will live longer. So I feel like the 'Adam's Family TV show where Morticia would cut the rose off the stem'..... but that does work in keeping the life cycle at bay.
