What a beautiful collection! Thank You for the fantastic tips on growing. They were extremely helpful. I can't wait to see my air plants start thriving with better care.
I spray mine until all the grass is wet then turn it upside down to get off the drippings. If there's any moisture on the bottom by the roots, I pat dry with a towel before putting it in a stand.
Such a good tutorial! Much more concise yet detailed than other videos. Thank you! PS: I'm making driftwood displays for xmas gifts which is why I looked up your video.
Excellent video, thanks so much! I learned a lot. Just got my first Tilly and I'm doing my best. Would love to see a tour of your air plant collection on the wall there!
Thank you for a very informative video! I have only recently started obsessing about these! I love them already!! I am trying to collect a variety of different types . I can't believe the size of them on your video! I haven't seen any that big over here in the UK!
I've been using an orchid mist fertilizer from miracle grow and it has been working wonderfully. I also speak once a week(usually in an extremely diluted used coffee grounds water) they have started doing so much better since I've started the orchid mist though.
I live in Southern California where it is very very dry. Any suggestion to take care of them? I am afraid they will not survive outside because it is too hot. But in the house there is no sun shining through nor air circulate.Thanks
The hardness of tap water varies from place to place. Take the place where I live as an example. The tap water in some cities within 200 kilometers is almost pure water, while some actually reach 300 mg per liter. I want to know the upper limit of hardness that can be used to soak air pineapples, thank you.
It looks like you are not dipping the base of the plant in the water... are you? Should we? Or do we just dip the top part? Thank you for your videos, you're amazing. I hope to see more and more videos and even more about indoor tropicals. Thanks!!
No need to dip the base. Air plants get moisture and nutrients through their leaves, so as long as the leaves get wet, the air plant can get what it needs. The roots and base are nothing more than anchors to keep the plant in place when they attach to trees in nature. You can even cut off the roots and the plant won’t get affected in any way.
Yes, dip the whole plant in the water, then shake off the excess. Do not allow the base of the plant to sit in water when you set it down to display it. The fertilizer comes from our Tillandsia supplier, and just says "Air Plant Food".
They should not be set on something that will hold water after you have dipped them in water. We use a little moss, but coarse sand or gravel will keep them from sitting in the excess water as well.
These air plants are displayed on an old antique baby bed mattress spring. I believe it was found in an antique store locally. There are a lot of old things being re-purposed, and I've seen these used for many different display purposes.
I am sure that there are many ways to care for the tillandsias, according to the temperature, humidity, etc. that they receive. If what you are doing works for you, then that is the way that you should do it!
I have found that there are many ways to care for plants. If your plants do well with that method, I would definitely continue it. Keep up the good work!
Many plants will give you a "tell" that let you know their "stress point". I would rather not allow the Tillandsia become stressed or begin to lose color or shrivel, but of course that could be observed. If I have let a Tillandsia go "too far" and it does shrivel, I will leave it in the water longer and allow it to re-hydrate.
I am not aware of steel being toxic to tillandsia. Just copper. I actually have native tillandsia growing on iron patio chairs and also see it on telephone/electric wires. We have had them on our "bedspring" display for many years.

This was the most helpful air plant video I've seen! Thank you thank you! Love the hanging display, too :)
An old mattress spring is a great idea for displaying airplants! Very awesome.
Thank you, very helpful. Easy to see you love your plants :)

Learned a lot from your video. Where can I purchase the display you have on the wall with the air plants?
Thanks to shares
Hi really enjoyed your video. I live in hot Florida and have a xerographica air plant, would you recommend I water it several times a day or week?
These are the healthiest air plants I’ve ever seen!!! Do you have a website where we can order plants from you?
Will u plz xplain abt the decor for air plants
I live in Southern California where it is very very dry. Any suggestion to take care of them? I am afraid they will not survive outside because it is too hot. But in the house there is no sun shining through nor air circulate.Thanks

Love air plants, very low maintenance, beautiful. Did you mean 2/3 times a day or a week? ♥️ from Pakistan
Sorry, I always see to mis-speak something! It is 2-3 times a WEEK.
It looks like you are not dipping the base of the plant in the water... are you? Should we? Or do we just dip the top part? Thank you for your videos, you're amazing. I hope to see more and more videos and even more about indoor tropicals. Thanks!!
No need to dip the base. Air plants get moisture and nutrients through their leaves, so as long as the leaves get wet, the air plant can get what it needs. The roots and base are nothing more than anchors to keep the plant in place when they attach to trees in nature. You can even cut off the roots and the plant won’t get affected in any way.
Hi Are you dip the plant complete in to the water or just the top? And can please tell me the name of the food? Thank you! So beautiful plants 👍💖
Yes, dip the whole plant in the water, then shake off the excess. Do not allow the base of the plant to sit in water when you set it down to display it. The fertilizer comes from our Tillandsia supplier, and just says "Air Plant Food".
Very interesting. I just bought my first two airplanes and I sat them into seashells. Question do I need to sit them in sand?
They should not be set on something that will hold water after you have dipped them in water. We use a little moss, but coarse sand or gravel will keep them from sitting in the excess water as well.
Did you say 2-3 times a day?
Whoops! I meant 2-3 times a week!
Can you put air plant on top of the used coffee ground?
Yeah you can. The coffee grounds won’t really do anything, since air plants get their nutrients fron the air, not from the medium you plant them on.
Hi! I'm new to your channel!, can you please share what is the best fertilizer to use for air plants? Hope to hear from you! Thanks!
Dear please nme of the wires u sed for wall attachments for air plants in circles. As well from where I could get these.
These air plants are displayed on an old antique baby bed mattress spring. I believe it was found in an antique store locally. There are a lot of old things being re-purposed, and I've seen these used for many different display purposes.
Thanks
What is the temperature of the water?
Water temperature should be room temperature, about 72°F.
At 1:57 you said "2-3 waterings a day". Is this correct?
No, I'm sorry. That was supposed to be 2-3 waterings per week.
I’ve always been told to soak air plants for 20 min once a week....is that not ok?
I am sure that there are many ways to care for the tillandsias, according to the temperature, humidity, etc. that they receive. If what you are doing works for you, then that is the way that you should do it!
I have found that there are many ways to care for plants. If your plants do well with that method, I would definitely continue it. Keep up the good work!
When you dip into the water, don't you need to put it upside down so it is completely dry before put it back?
Can you "tell" on the plant when it's time to be watered?
Many plants will give you a "tell" that let you know their "stress point". I would rather not allow the Tillandsia become stressed or begin to lose color or shrivel, but of course that could be observed. If I have let a Tillandsia go "too far" and it does shrivel, I will leave it in the water longer and allow it to re-hydrate.
Can you just add the diluted fertilizer to the bucket of water you use to water the plants?
I am sure that would be fine.
Will steel wire kill my tillandsia
I am not aware of steel being toxic to tillandsia. Just copper. I actually have native tillandsia growing on iron patio chairs and also see it on telephone/electric wires. We have had them on our "bedspring" display for many years.
Thank you
I've heard that you shouldn't let air plants come in contact with copper. Is this true?
That is correct. It is toxic to Tillandsias.
Thank you!
Also be careful around landscape timbers. They are treated with copper sulfate and that will kill your tillandsias.

I hope they are not being depleted from the rain forest.
