Discover Tillandsia 'Rainforest Red', a groundbreaking airplant that brings year-round vibrant color to your collection.

Origin: Patented cultivar (USPP Pat#32009)
Distinctive traits: Bright red foliage maintained throughout the year
Size: Grows up to 8 inches (20 cm) in both width and height

Key features:

  • Vibrant coloration: Deep red foliage that holds its color year-round
  • Attractive form: Gently recurving rosette of numerous leaves
  • Versatile sizing: Available in various sizes to suit different display needs
  • Historic significance: America's first patented Tillandsia species
  • Low maintenance: Retains red color even in moderate light conditions

'Rainforest Red' is a true showstopper. The airplant forms a lush rosette of slender, needle-like leaves that radiate outward and gently curve downward at the tips. The foliage displays a stunning gradient of reds, from deep crimson at the base to bright cherry red at the leaf tips, with hints of orange and yellow adding depth and dimension.

Scientific note: This cultivar demonstrates:

  • The potential for developing Tillandsia varieties with stable, year-round coloration
  • Genetic improvements in the Tillandsia genus, leading to patentable traits
  • Similarities to T. ionantha and T. 'Victoria' suggest possible genetic relationships
 Size Large
Small 2"-3"
Medium 3"-4"
Large 4"-6"
Extra Large 6"-8"

 

Care tip: Provide bright, filtered light to maintain the vibrant red coloration. While it can tolerate moderate light, very low light conditions may cause some color fading. Mist thoroughly 2-3 times a week or soak for 20-30 minutes every 1-2 weeks, allowing to dry completely between waterings.

Ideal for:

  • Collectors seeking a constant pop of color in their airplant displays
  • Those who appreciate rare and unique Tillandsia cultivars
  • Enthusiasts of red-foliaged plants
  • Growers looking for low-maintenance yet visually striking specimens

Display recommendation: The vivid red coloration makes 'Rainforest Red' an excellent focal point in airplant arrangements. Consider mounting it against a light-colored background or pairing it with silver-leaved Tillandsia species for maximum contrast.

Legal note: Unauthorized propagation for commercial use is prohibited. Propagation is allowed by license only.

Bring a patented piece of airplant innovation to your collection with Tillandsia 'Rainforest Red'. Experience the joy of owning a truly unique specimen that provides a stunning crimson display 365 days a year.

Air and space
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for my friend who was scheduled to see the Smithsonian Air and Space museum when he broke his hand. Sadly he wasn’t able to go to the museum but absolutely loved this book I bought him! It has so many things the museum has in it. If you or a friend cannot make it down to DC this is definitely a must buy!!!

Great Annotated Aircraft Encyclopedia
Format: Hardcover
This book was a gift for my husband who is an aircraft fanatic. We live near an airbase, which is now out of commission, but in the past, there was an aircraft museum with information about aircraft, which fascinated my husband. This book was a great surprise for him because it is not just full of pictures, but also includes text about the history, building, and uses of each aircraft.

Great Guide to the National Air & Space Museum
I recently visited the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum. It was the first time I'd been there since they moved into their current facility in the mid-1970's. It was breathtaking. The best way to describe the effect of walking in the main entrance is to envision the bedroom of a boy who hangs model airplanes from the ceiling. Only at the NASM, the "models" hanging from the ceiling are full-size. I was a model-building boy in the 1950's, and my favorites were planes I'd built from kits. Unfortunately, the museum was undergoing some of its regular updating and a few of my favorite planes weren't on view, such as the F89 Super Saber. Fortunately, that plane and most (if not all) the permanent collection are profiled in the Best of the National Air and Space Museum. If at all possible, visit the museum. If you can't get there, buy the book. Actually, buy the book in either case. You won't be disappointed.

The Air & Space Museum is a national treasure.
Format: Hardcover
This is one of those books that makes you wish you were there. Lots of pictures and tidbits of information. A good quality book physically as well. We get their magazine and this is one of many books we have both from and about the museum. Highly Recommended.
