This is what is known as an air-plant(Tillandsia utriculata) found growing in the Maroon Sanctuary Park. Most trees within the park don't have flower plants growing as epiphytes(air-plant) on their branches. In the virgin forest (northwest) of Maroon Park's rugged ridge, there are more flower plants on trees, which indicates that one time there were more epiphytes on tree branches hanging from the forest canopies.

The dry pods appear in March and into April where trees begin to flower, waiting for the spring rain to come. The Tibet tree is also known locally as Women's Tongues. (Photo by Olasee Davis)
