Air plants - a fairy plant that anyone can keep alive

Air Plant Introduction

Air plants are also known as Tillandsia. There are many varieties of air plants with great differences in shape. The main varieties are: Descending Tillandsia, Air Flower Tillandsia, Silver Leaf Tillandsia, Needle Leaf Tillandsia, Julia Tillandsia, Beji Tillandsia, Cactus Tillandsia, Curved Leaf Tillandsia, Usnea Tillandsia, Octopus Tillandsia, Bulb Tillandsia, etc.

Air plants do not need to be planted in soil or water. They are special plants that can grow just by spraying water. Because air plants have no roots, but have water storage tissue on their leaves, they can survive by absorbing water vapor and nitrogen compounds in the air through the hairs on the leaves. They can live well without special care, but they grow quite slowly.

They have strong adaptability to adversity, and are drought-resistant, light-resistant, wind-resistant, shade-resistant, heat-resistant and cold-resistant; they do not need pots or soil, and do not breed mosquitoes; they are a type of plant that grows on tree trunks, stone walls and even cacti. If one day you suddenly have a change of heart and start taking extra care of her by fertilizing her and watering her, you will end up harming her instead. So please stop hurting her and just continue to be lazy.
