Third Week on Xerographica Bloom and First on Another One!

I guess  you can whip me with a wet noodle since I did not post the 3rd week of Xerographica bloom cycle Saturday. I wasted the whole day yesterday laying around wondering why I felt so bad. But, today I am back to normal.


Look at these pictures from last week and today! Amazing!Don't you agree?
Sunday 8/31/14                                          
























Now look at last weeks. See the big difference? Isn't it interesting how a plant that is so slow growing can produce its bloom in a matter of a few weeks?
Last week 8/23/14





Now with only two Xerographica in stock the larger is now in the beginning stages of blooming. Earlier this week I noticed the center looked different. Now look!

Watch this Tillandsia Xerographica (SilverBeauty) as it blooms.

What a wonderful surprise when I found a bud coming up in one of my Xerographica!

It is developing very fast. It has been a week since I took this picture. And now look I just took this one today 8/23/14. See how fast it is growing?
The picture is a little light. It was made in 100degree bright sun.

I will take another one next Saturday. So be sure and watch the progress.
