Similar in appearance to Tillandsia Dark Star, Purple Frost is, well, frostier as you might guess! Compact open rosette, soft lepidote but erect leaves, and a showy pink bract with contrasting dark purple flowers. The pollen parent is Tillandsia recurvifolia which at the time of the hybrid being made was named Tillandsia meridionalis
