Hi amelipoulain,

Did you include the code at teh front and back of the picture when posting? You've got to host your pictures either on a website or a free picture hosting service like photobucket or imageshack. From there copy the img code and paste it on the thread. You can read more about how to do this at the notice board, under "How To Post Pictures".

Yeah, i have lots of those hanging from just about everywhere for that Christmassy look all year round. Can also be grown as a curtain....

I also got another variety called Tillandsia Mallemontii which is bigger, has fragrant dainty purple flowers...also got the white flower version. Heheh. Cheers...

tarence, where did you find the Tillandsia Mallemontii ? Any chance of a picture?

Spanish moss is also called T. uesnoides. There many variant ranging from thin hairy type to thick curly variety. The plants can be found throughout South American continent concentrating from Gulf of Mexico to the Florida Keys. Very hardy and easy to grow plant. Can become weeds in no time. However it hardly produce flowers in our local climate. T. mallemontii is closely related to uesnoides except for its shorter form and either purple or white flower. Both are easy to grow.
