This is one of the early complex hybrids (a hybrid using a hybrid as at least one of the parents).  Pam found Tillandsia ehlersiana x Tillandsia seleriana growing as a natural hybrid in Mexico, and several years later she crossed it with Tillandsia seleriana.  The result is a plant that is fairly large given the parentage.  Leaves are long and slightly recurved, leaves have a dense scurf on them
