Tillandsia Taurus
schiedeana? x ?
Grown by Ken Woods from unknown source. Investigated/grown by Terence Davis.
Possible lineages often received "Bull*" comment, hence named by Ian Hook.

From BSI register... "Generally has a single spike but can have up to 3, each about 8cms. long. There is a suggestion that T. schiedeana is involved –somewhere! Appears to have links to plant called T. occulta from Bird Rock Nursery, California in the 1990's
