These are some Tillys i got off ebay last week.Would like to ID them, they have already bloomed and died off so can't tell the color. the leave have a rounded look but there is a deep groove down the center and are fairly thick. i can take more pic but my camera isn't the greatest.1st pic is aclump and 2nd is the base.
thanks for any help

Thanks Gonz,
i think that's it. there is also 1 similar on Bird Rock that is Strep x Bulbosa but it has some twisted leave and the 1's i have all the leaves just flare up & out and i have around 20 of these plants.

It's actually one of my favorite Tillandsias. It is much easier to grow than straight T. bulbosa. Your clump is a fine example.

Even without a flower it would seem to be x smalliana.
