Tillandsia 'Tina Parr' vipp 8-20 an overall pinkPaul Isleys hybrid of (seleriana x ionantha) is a small grower, larger than the ionantha parent, but half the size of seleriana. The shape is largely like the seleriana; bulbous at the base with somewhat cylindric, tapering leaves growing upright to form a sort of teardrop shape. Very fuzzy and silvery with trichomes and it blushes reddish at anthesis. The inflorescence is held within the foliage, without a discernible scape, unlike the seleriana
