I think that's going to be a permanent spot. Usually I tie them to the trees but that one fit perfectly snug into the tree so I figured I'd just let it do it's thing. I do leave all my bromeliads out and in the ground or on trees, but if it gets frosty I'll throw blankets on them. Here's a picture of a native tillandsia I took while walking through a local wetlands preserve. Not too sure which tillandsia this is, but I was so happy to see it. I can't recall seeing them in the wild ever. When my dad goes hunting up in North Florida this fall I've already told him to keep a lookout and take pictures for me.
