Tillandsia schiedeana is a small to medium-sized epiphytic bromeliad (air plant) native to Mexico and parts of Central America. It commonly grows attached to tree branches, shrubs, fences, and even rocks, especially in tropical dry forests, oak woodlands, and semi-arid regions, where it thrives without needing soil.
