Display air plants

-

Air plants, or tillandsia, are epiphytes that grow on trees or rocks in the wild. These unusual plants are remarkably easy to grow indoors and as they don’t require soil, you can display them just about anywhere as long they have plenty of indirect sunlight, ventilatio­n and, most importantl­y, water. Immerse in rainwater once a week and mist in between. Air plants look great displayed in shells, terrariums or glass jars suspended from the ceiling. Mount air plants on bark, a sculpture or even in a picture – let your imaginatio­n run wild!
