Tillandsia xerographica

Tillandsia xerographica is a large silver-green air plant with broad leaves that curl and recurve into an open rosette. Its wide, tapering leaves follow a slower wet-dry cycle than finer green Tillandsias.

This species is native from southern Mexico to Central America and grows as a seasonally dry epiphyte. Indoors, it needs bright filtered light, strong airflow, and careful watering that wets the leaves without leaving the crown damp.

Tillandsia xerographica broad silver rosette

  • Plant type: Large epiphytic bromeliad grown without soil.
  • Foliage: Broad silver-green leaves with a softly scaled surface.
  • Growth habit: Open rosette with recurved, curling leaves.
  • Origin: Native from southern Mexico to Central America.
  • Watering: Less frequent but thorough wetting, followed by full drying.
  • Drying: The crown must not stay wet after watering.

Rosette structure of Tillandsia xerographica

The leaves of Tillandsia xerographica are broad at the base, taper toward the tips, and curl outward as the plant matures. The silver surface reflects its dense trichome covering, which allows brighter, drier handling than wet-biome Tillandsias.

The open rosette can collect water near the centre after soaking. Because this species recovers slowly from crown damage, drying position and airflow matter as much as watering frequency.

Wet-dry care for Tillandsia xerographica

  • Drying: Turn the plant after watering so water leaves the centre of the rosette.
  • Airflow: Keep it in an open position with air moving around the broad leaves.
  • Water: Wet thoroughly, but avoid prolonged soaking that leaves the crown saturated.
  • Light: Give bright filtered light with protection from overheated direct sun behind glass.
  • Humidity: Moderate humidity is enough when watering is thorough and the crown dries fully.
  • Water quality: Low-mineral water reduces marks on the silver leaf surface.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and away from cold, wet conditions.
  • Feeding: Use a very weak air-plant fertiliser occasionally; heavy residue can coat the trichomes.
  • Substrate: Do not plant in soil, moss, pon, or semi-hydro reservoirs.

Common issues with Tillandsia xerographica

  • Crown rot: A soft centre usually comes from water remaining in the rosette.
  • Tight leaf curling: Leaves can fold more tightly when the plant is too dry for too long.
  • Scorch: Hot direct sun can leave dry pale patches on the silver-green leaves.
  • Slow recovery: Damaged crowns can take a long time to replace with clean new growth.
  • Pests: Check between broad leaf bases for scale or mealybug.

Safety for Tillandsia xerographica

Tillandsia xerographica should be kept away from pets or children that may chew the leaves or knock the loose plant from its holder.

Rugged Watch at Good Price
Color: Black, Gray
I originally wanted a G-Shock but I have a small wrist and G-Shocks come with cases that are too big for my 6.1 inch wrist. An alternative? I bought the Timex Ironman. It has a rugged look and many of the features of a G-Shock but at a lower price. Small wrist? Or don't want to spend the money for a G-Shock? This is your best bet.

I am a Big Fan of TIMEX and I own several models, this one is my all time favorite. I've ordered it with so much excitement, but received an opened package, opened box, that was torn and destroyed, my Timex hanging out of the box!!!!!!!!!! COME ON People - We are paying our sweat money for this, at least deliver it with respect! The watch is a work of art and I love it! It's a good value for money, great in size, fits right on your wrist, feels so good, looks so cool and is super accurate! So, Thank you TIMEX ! I wrote 4 Starts because of the terrible delivery service!!! Not the watch! AMAZON - Please be respectful.

Simple and reliable
Color: Black/Digital/Green
I love the simplicity and reliability of this watch. It has only a handful of features, but they're all easy to figure out and use. The display is quite readable as well, under just about any conditions. This is an example of good design that doesn't try to do too much. What it does do, it does well. Good price too! These watches are durable and will last a long time. Battery changes are easy too.

Beautifully simple
Color: Black/Digital/Green
My son has worn a smaller version of this watch for a few years. After trying a different brand lately, which broke way too easily, I found this one on Amazon listed as "Used - Very Good" condition. I received what appeared to be simply an open box item, otherwise it looked brand new. This watch fits me really well, and is not clumsy on my wrist, it does not get in the way of everyday motions. For me, it's just the right size. It is also pretty intuitive to use and set the alarms, etc. It has 3 alarms, each with a different sound. It can be worn in the shower without issue, I have not tried a swimming pool, though. It feels tough and durable, as my son's has proven to be. I'm very happy with this purchase. *** Update: I spent considerable time in swimming pools recently while wearing the watch. It's still as good as when I opened it. Still 5 stars. *** Update 2: a year-and-a-half of wearing, and it is performing really well! All the buttons and words on the watch are still in very good shape and easy to read. I wear this every single day. I don't put it through the wringer every day. But, I did spend a full week sailing and snorkeling last summer in salt water with hours each day in the water. It still looks and works the same as the day I bought it.
