Tillandsia 'sp. 'Creation'

[Al in Kona]

This is my Tillandsia sp. 'Creation'.  It grows to a height and width of about 76cm (30").  Flowers are a very nice pink color.  When I first got this plant I did not know what it was but now that I do know its name I wanted to share it with you.  Any of you growing it?  What media are you using?

Very nice Creation Al , I have 2 plants that are yet to flower . Am growing them in a mix of bark , scoria , charcoal , and peat . These seem to like very high humidity , as the leaves often stick together . This is called 'quilling' in bromeliads , and with some species can kill the plant . Frequent misting usually fixes this , and sometimes a soapy solution squirted into the stuck leaves .

I have seen a very well grown Creation at over 1m tall , it was grown up on the cooler Tablelands by a very experienced grower , she was attemting to pollinate it , I hope she succeded.
