I’ve had other forms of tillandsia Duratii before but never one like this “clone version” so I was excited about getting it. So it arrives and the box was really beat up this time (even had a hole in it) but the way they packaged the plant and cushioned it to make sure it didn’t move was very nice and meticulous to the point that it didn’t matter how the box looked. The plant was fine and in tip top shape and just beautiful. It’s much fuzzier than any other form and looks like it’s been on steroids it’s so thick. I can’t tell you how many times I said OMG! When I opened the box Thanks Airplant Hub for another great plant! You have some of the best selections hands down.

This thick leaf duratii is another new one for me, and with Mom and the Kid (see 3 spike bloomer review), I chose to show a closer-up of this one. You can see how thick the leaves are; duratii beyond belief! I chose this shot because it best showed the curls ear its behind. It's fuzzy to touch, and against the cheek it's divine! I took many many shots with my new camera, and will be posting them on: https://hungophotos.smugmug.com But for now, I wanted to get this pair o' reviews up because I was quick enough to get 'em both, and they are sooo worth the $$$. The 3 spike Duratii review shows how they all look together, angling slightly up. These huge plants were well packaged in a nice large (and interesting) box. They are so healthy I just hope I can keep it up. :-)
