Everything You Need To Know About Air Plants

No Soil Needed

Air plants absorb nutrients and moisture through their leaves, making them perfect for creative displays in various containers or hanging arrangements.

Fertilizing

Use a diluted, water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring to fall) to support healthy growth.

Light Requirements

They thrive in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Avoid placing them in low-light conditions

Watering

Mist your air plants with water 2-3 times a week or soak them in water for about 20-30 minutes every 1-2 weeks. Shake off excess water to prevent rot.

Air Circulation

Good air circulation is crucial for air plants. Ensure they dry completely within 4 hours of watering to prevent mold or rot

Temperature

They prefer temperatures between 50-90°F (10-32°C) and should be protected from extreme cold or heat.

Maintenance

Trim any dead or dried-out leaves with scissors to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
