Tillandsia 'Druid' cv. of ionantha

This is only one of the many cultivars of Tillandsia ionantha.

 

Develops a peach color rather than the red that other forms of Tillandsia ionantha.

In addition, the flowers are white instead of the blue/violet of the other forms.

 

Dyckia burle-marxii

Nice reddest (is what word?)  Dyckia with big spines. If you look a little closer you can see the tips of the spines show some white but not on the under side.

This Dyckia needs to be protected from the rain to keep in good color.

How many forms of Dyckia fosteriana are their?

As far as I tell 5. Well maybe.
