These plants are best rotated over a couple of days so that they may grow evenly all the way around the plant. Propagation is not easy with these plants, as it is generally done by seed. A Tillandsia that has bloomed may produce 1-3 pups before the mother plant dies off. \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/b\u003e 10 - 33 degrees Celsius. These plants can tolerate short amounts of time in temperatures as low as 5 degrees Celsius, but do not expose to frost or freezing conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eLight:\u003c\/b\u003e Tillandsia grow in the canopies of trees and receive very dappled lighting in their natural habitat. Therefore, they are not well suited to full sun as they will dry out much faster and their leaves can burn.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eWatering:\u003c\/b\u003e Water air plants by putting them in a bowl of water for 5-10 minutes every 3-4 days. These plants will not tolerate drying out completely but can withstand a minor drought. Misting these plants will not be enough and should only be done to raise humidity. \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eSoil:\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cb\u003eFertilizer:\u003c\/b\u003e Air plants do not generally require fertilizer, but if you are trying to encourage blooming you can use a low-nitrogen Bromeliad fertilizer at the start of the growing season. Use a fertilizer that is low in copper as it is actually toxic to them.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n","brand":"Paridon Horticultural Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49570944123120,"sku":"14210","price":7.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/3617\/4760\/products\/14210-2_91569de6-ea38-413f-9c6d-8630ecb18208.jpg?v=1673910924","url":"https:\/\/floralacres.ca\/products\/tillandsia-tricolor-5-6-47515","provider":"Floral Acres Greenhouse \u0026 Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
