Abstract
In this paper, the plant lists of Tillandsioideae, subfamily of plants from 9 genera in the bromeliad family (Bromeliaceae), grown in the Zagreb Botanical Garden of the Faculty of Science from 1892 until 2021 are studied. Synonymy, nomenclature and origin of plant material were sorted. Lists of species, grown in the last 129 years have been constructed to show that during that period at least 82 taxa from the Tillandsioideae subfamily (3 from Catopsis, 6 from Guzmania, 63 from Tillandsia and 10 from Vriesea) inhabited the Garden’s collections. Today we have 73 species and cultivars from 4 genera in Tillandsioideae subfamily: 3 from Catopsis, 5 from Guzmania, 57 from Tillandsia and 8 from Vriesea.
