Where it grows wild

Not described in the sources reached. The single measured site is a seasonally dry Andean valley or slope, where Tillandsias commonly grow on rocks, cacti and shrubs in open, sunny places.

No elevation is recorded. Winter nights of about 1 C suggest a highland site, probably above 2,000 m.
