My Airplant is Producing Pups!

My Tillandsia Ionantha scaposa which I purchased from grow something about 1.5 years ago is finally producing pups. It’s the first time that I’ve seen major growth on an airplant despite having them for nearly 2 years.

I recently separated the first pup when it was about 1/3 the size and new pup is already forming.
