According to gonzer gray leave forms need very little water , green leaf forms need regu;ar waterings

Fishin, the leaves did not get hard from lack of water. Tillandsias as a whole need very little moisture, soaking is only done in extreme cases of dehydration, and then it should be for a 12-24 hour period. As Hdd alluded to, the grayer (or whiter) the leaf, the less moisture it needs. The white color comes from special cells called trichomes that suck up any available moisture and deflect sunlight. The more trichomes, the whiter the plant, hence less water and more light. Don't worry about the green ones for now. Your assortment shows a T. funkiana in the middle with a T. stricta showing a pink flower top just peeping through. A couple of T. ionanthas round out the right side. These can take misting (not watering) 3-5 times a week depending where you live. The two large guys on the left can jandle misting 2-3 times. Go ahead with your tree. You can always mix hi/lo water needy plants, just be careful when misting. Here's a site for more info.

Thanks for all the great info. I cant believe that you saw that tiny flower. Well I put them on the tree and it look pretty good. I had some twisty tie wire and used that to hold them on until I get some glue. Or is their a better way to hold them on? Well here it is. If anyone can Id the other broms I would appreciate it.
