Tillandsia baileyi

Found throughout Central America these are a bulbous species of air plant with thick tubular leaves that resemble a creature from the deep sea. The leaves are an emerald green with purple accents. The plant will bloom lavender once before producing pups at its base if left hanging. 

Can be grown indoors or outdoors.  Best in strong, indirect light.

This is a plant from a humid environment and may require more frequent watering. Spray or dunk once a week and allow to dry within 6-8 hours. DO. NOT. SOAK. This will trap water in the tight grooves of the leaves and rot your plant.
