Variegation tends to be a recessive trait in Tillandsias, often appearing and disappearing within a generation or two. Sometimes, in the case of Tillandsia Deborah Ann and now Tillandsia Extravagance, this trait is strong, and readily passed on to most offsets. This plant is a real winner, and a prized possession of any collection. Only a few people in the world have them, so get yours while you can!
