Just where do Air Plants come from?
Also known as tillandsia, these little botanical darlings hail from the forests, mountains and deserts in Central and South America. As they mostly need only fresh, circulating air (and a little bit of water, not even soil) to grow, they’re thus endearingly known as “air plants”. There are over 650 types of air plants that can grow without soil and they usually have slender or triangle-shaped leaves and gorgeous tubular or funnel-shaped flowers that sadly, only bloom once in the air plant’s lifetime.
Advantages of Air Plants
Effortless to start: Soak your 9GreenBox air plant in room temperature tap water for about 30 minutes when you received it. Then place the air plant upside down on a towel and place it somewhere bright - that’s it!
Nifty sized: our 9GreenBox air plant is nestled in a delightful 3 inches shell holder that looks absolutely cute while being space saving.
Air purifier plants: scientists have confirmed that indoor plants are natural air purifiers as they absorb carbon dioxide and other harmful gases.
Caring for Air Plants
We’ve made our tillandsia air plants kit really hassle free. With an exotic seashell holder included, you don’t even have to go hunting for a air plant vase. To ensure that your air plant is in top shape, place it in a bright, airy place away from direct sunlight. Your 9GreenBox air plant decor only needs a little water once every 3 to 4 weeks, and even less during cold seasons. Occasionally, trim brown or dead leaves with a pair of scissors. With minimal attention effort on your part, your air plants can still be thriving happily.
