Air Plant Tillandsia | Pack of 2

Air plants (Tillandsia) don't require traditional potting with soil; instead, "pot" them by mounting or displaying them creatively on surfaces like wood, rocks, or in open containers to allow air circulation.

Wire them with non-copper materials (copper is toxic); twist gently around the base or roots without damaging the plant.

Secure with fishing line or twine for a minimalist look, tying loosely to avoid restricting growth.

Place in glass terrariums, bowls, or hanging orbs without soil, but ensure good ventilation to prevent rot.

For wall displays, attach to slat wood, cork, or frames using the above methods for an artistic arrangement.

Care Instructions

Provide bright, indirect sunlight or fluorescent lighting; avoid prolonged direct sun to prevent scorching.

Water by soaking in room-temperature water for 20-30 minutes weekly, or mist 2-3 times a week in drier environments; adjust based on humidity.

Ensure good air circulation; place in well-ventilated areas to mimic their natural epiphytic habitat.

Maintain temperatures between 10-32°C (50-90°F) and humidity around 40-60%; they're tolerant but thrive in moderate conditions.

Fertilize monthly with a diluted bromeliad or air plant fertilizer during soaking to boost growth and blooming.

Tips

After watering, shake off excess water and let dry upside down for 4 hours to avoid rot in the center.

Avoid pressure-treated wood or copper materials for mounting, as they can harm the plant.

In glass containers, keep away from direct windows to prevent magnified heat burning the leaves.

Rotate displays periodically for even light exposure and growth.

Watch for pups (offsets) after blooming; separate them gently when half the parent's size for propagation.

If leaves curl or brown, increase watering; if soft or black, reduce and improve airflow.
