Tillandsia, commonly known as air plants, are a type of epiphytic plant that belongs to the Bromeliaceae family. They are native to Central and South America, where they grow on trees and other plants without soil, and obtain their nutrients and moisture from the air.
Tillandsia
Lighting: Tillandsias, or air plants, require bright, indirect light to thrive. They are adapted to growing on trees and other plants in their native environments, where they receive filtered light through the canopy.
Watering: Tillandsias, or air plants, require regular watering to thrive. However, they have unique watering needs compared to other plants, as they absorb water and nutrients through their leaves rather than their roots. Here are some tips for watering Tillandsias:
Soak method: Submerge the plant in water for 30 minutes to an hour, once a week. After soaking, shake off excess water and let the plant dry completely before placing it back in its display.
Mist method: Mist the plant with a spray bottle 2-3 times a week. Make sure to mist the entire plant, including the undersides of the leaves.
Drying: After watering, make sure the plant is able to dry completely before placing it back in its display. Air plants are susceptible to rot if they are left in a moist environment for too long.
Water quality: Use filtered or purified water when possible, as air plants are sensitive to minerals and chemicals found in tap water.
It is important to observe your air plant and adjust your watering routine based on its specific needs. In general, air plants that are exposed to more light and air circulation will require more frequent watering than those in lower light or more humid environments.
Air plants come in many different shapes, sizes, and colors, and are popular houseplants because of their unique appearance and ease of care. They require bright, indirect light, and should be watered by misting or soaking in water for a few hours once or twice a week, depending on the humidity and temperature of their environment.
In addition to their aesthetic value, air plants are also beneficial for indoor air quality, as they absorb pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene from the air. They can be displayed in a variety of creative ways, such as in terrariums, on driftwood, or in hanging containers.

So far, so good!! Upon arrival I was pleasantly surprised at the attention in preparation for shipping. The plants arrived safely and still appear to be doing quite well. I was also impressed with the size of each plant. I have purchased plants at a higher price and not even close to the same size. Thank you.
