Julie, the form is that of T. ionantha yet yours is not showing the red center blush associated with ionanthas. There are quite a few varieties of this plant. Is that a 4" pot that it's sitting in?

Thanks for the ID, itÂs a 6 inch pot its sitting in and only temporarily, I bought it in bloom and donÂt want to mount it until itÂs done blooming so I stuck it in with one of my orchids until its done. Would it be safe to mount anyways, or am I right in thinking it could affect the blooming?

That's mighty big for a T. ionantha. It could be a hybrid of T. ionantha and T. brachycaulos. I seen it listed by the hybrid grex, and also under the name 'Victoria'. Ideally the leaves should show a lot more red, but it's poosible that it needs more natural light (or strong artificial light) to develop. I have that happen with some of my Tillandsias and Neos, too. You're obviously doing well to get your plant to bloom. Pray that next time it blooms during the summer months and it should dazzle you with color!

I think you'd be safe to go ahead and mount it. The flowering period is quite short for T. ionantha and most of the hybrids with it.
