Where to buy tillandsia in the Philippines
Here are the places where you can buy tillandsia in Manila, Philippines
1. Puentespina Orchids (Waling Orchids) located in Manila Seedling Bank, Quezon Ave. Tel. 9242730. I went there last July and I was so delighted. They have a lot of tillandsia and I chose four (quite hard to chose when you're on a budget).
2. Horti Negrense located in Bacolod. I bought from them during the Horticultural Show but unfortunately they do not have a place here in Manila. They can deliver it (I'm still waiting for their pricelist). Tel. 0917-3559741, 0927-9180224
3. Garden, Horticultural Shows - attend those shows and you might be lucky. Bought one from an exhibitor during the show.
4. Ms. Baby G. Alarcon. 20-I Malingap St., Teachers Village, Diliman Q.C. Tel. 0917-5348186. She introduced me to air plants and I got hook on them.

Tillandsia Collection
MORE TILLANDSIAS
I bought four tillandsias from Puentespina Quezon Ave. Here are the pictures. I kept all the labels so now I know the names of the tillandsias (learned my lesson - never forget the names coz it is hard to identify them and sort of making me nuts).
Tillandia caput medusae - weird looking but hey it already has a pup |
