Tillandsia truncata
Josemania truncata (also known as Tillandsia truncata) is a small epiphytic bromeliad from Colombia and Ecuador, grown as a houseplant or in mounts for its tidy rosette form. Like other air plants, it needs good air movement and regular misting rather than soil.
Josemania truncata is a species of flowering plant in the family Bromeliaceae, native to Colombia and Ecuador. It was first described by Lyman Bradford Smith in 1954 as Tillandsia truncata. Plants of the World Online sinks the genus Josemania into Cipuropsis, treating this species as Cipuropsis truncata.
