Default Newly named hybrid

Would like to share a recent named hybrid. It looks simply amazing in a huge clump.

Here's the link: http://www.fcbs.org/images/Tillandsia/t_Gorgon9858.jpg

That's really nice-sized hybrid. It looks like it's got bulbosa or caput genes in it.
Now speaking of hybrids, I got two giant sized caputs not too long ago. This is the size comparison with normal caputs.

I'm guessing that the two giants are the caput medusae 'Sonoran Snow', although I really doubt the one on the right (light green) is. Could be a caput x brachy. What do you guys think or guess it is?

Wow! you have so many cvs. there! I doubt the largest and greenest one is a caput. X brachy. hybrid as the infl is exacly the same as a caput (which mine had flowered). Personally, it think it's just a some sort of giant cv from caput itself.

ALvin,
Love looking at your tillies... very healthy and clean.
I hope my tillies will grow well.
I am in HK now. Will try looking for some tilly. Not sure if the price is cheaper than KL or not.
