Tillandsia latifolia Graffiti has thick, succulent leaves that spread horizontally. These leaves have a distinctive olive green color although they are relatively tomentose (covered with trichomes, that is, the tiny white appendages that reflect sunlight and absorb water). Tillandsia latifolia Graffiti grows to be over 30 cm across and almost that tall. It produces large, beautiful inflated orange spikes from which magenta flowers emerge.
