Care Instructions
Talk about a hard plant to kill. Tillandsias don’t even require soil. They drink and eat through their “leaves.”
Once wet, more water doesn’t do a thing. Wet ‘em and leave ‘em.
If easy, best method is submerging in water for a couple hours, once every two weeks
If submerging is a hassle, simply mist with water bottle about once every week or two.
If you missed a cycle, don’t worry, and don’t try to make up for it.
Watering too often can make the center area rot, so don’t overfuss.
If the tips of leaves are “pinching up” and you haven’t watered recently, it’s time to water.
