The sprout is called an inflorescence but I have never seen a little glass looking bulb on any of the flowering plants I sell.<BR/><BR/>Seeds are extremely hard to propogate with air plants. They require much care, time , and perfect condition. Most tillandsia produce pups after flowering so no need to grow the seeds. Continue Misting as you have been, just don't over wet the flower itself. <BR/><BR/>If you have pictures would love for you to upload them.Cathyhttp://www.airplantcity.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22554473.post-83724674407407192872008-12-11T19:24:00.000-05:002008-12-11T19:24:00.000-05:00I've been doing exactly as you say, and now one of...I've been doing exactly as you say, and now one of my plants has produced a tall, fast-growing sprout (I don't know the correct word for this colorful growth) which in turn produced a tiny white flower with two hanging pods, which I assumed held seeds. To my surprise, another sprout sprang up next to the first, and its flower produced not just two pods but a tiny glass-like ball, which has now collapsed. Maybe the seed was in there? My question: if these are seeds wanting to grow in the base of the grass-like plant, I hesitate to soak the plant, though I continue to mist it. What do you think I should do? Thank you for your advice!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
