Tillandsia capitata 'Pinoy Yellow'
Tillandsia capitata 'Yellow' is a cultivated form of the species Tillandsia capitata, known for its soft, velvety leaves and warm, blushing tones during bloom. Native to Mexico, Cuba, and Central America, the species grows in semi-arid forests and rocky outcrops, where it receives high light and regular air circulation. This 'Yellow' cultivar develops a gentle yellow to golden hue across its foliage when in bloom, creating a radiant contrast with its violet flowers. Its soft trichome-covered leaves and graceful rosette shape make it an appealing choice for display in both bright indoor and outdoor environments.
Care Tips:
- Light: Prefers bright, filtered light; tolerates some direct sun in cooler conditions
- Water: Mist 3–4 times weekly or soak once a week; allow to dry within a few hours
- Humidity: Thrives in moderate humidity with adequate airflow
- Media: Mount on bark or wood, or display in well-ventilated containers
- Temperature: Best grown between 16–30°C; protect from frost
- Fertiliser: Apply diluted tillandsia fertiliser monthly during warmer months
