If well taken care of, as these mysterious plants reach maturity they will reward you with a magnificent bloom of colourful, exotic flowers.
So whether your want to build a terrarium, add to the collection of plants in the bathroom or just get started taking care of your first plant, air plants are the perfect place to start and won’t leave you disappointed.
- How often should I water my air plant, and what is the best method?
- Air plants need to be watered once a week by soaking them in water for about 20-30 minutes. After soaking, shake off any excess water and place them in a bright, airy spot to dry completely.
- Can I keep my air plant in a bathroom without windows?
- Yes, air plants are ideal for bathrooms as they thrive in humid environments and can tolerate low to medium light conditions. However, ensure they receive some indirect light and have good air circulation.
- Are air plants suitable for terrariums and what should I consider when placing them?
- Air plants are perfect for terrariums due to their minimal soil needs and size. When placing them in a terrarium, make sure there is enough space for air circulation and avoid closed terrariums to prevent moisture buildup which can lead to rot.
☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
Air Plants, including your Tillandsia, thrive best in bright, indirect sunlight. A spot near a window that receives filtered light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.
💧 Water
💧💧▫️ (Medium)
Moisture is crucial, even for air plants. Mist your Tillandsia 2-3 times a week, depending on the humidity in your home. If the air is drier, increase the frequency. You can also soak the plant in water for about 20-30 minutes every couple of weeks, then make sure to let it dry out fully.
🌡️ Temperature
🌡️🌡️▫️ (Average)
Tillandsia prefers average home temperatures between 16°C to 24°C. Keep them away from draughts and sources of heat like radiators to avoid temperature extremes.
💦 Humidity
💦💦▫️ (Moderate)
These plants love a bit of humidity. Bathrooms or kitchens can be perfect spots due to their naturally higher humidity, especially after a hot shower or while cooking.
🪴 Repotting
Repotting isn’t necessary for your Air Plant as it doesn’t grow in soil! However, you can attach it to a base like wood or shells (available on our shop and website) to enhance its stability and aesthetic appeal.
🐾 Pet Friendliness
Great news for pet owners! Air Plants like Tillandsia are non-toxic to cats and dogs, so they’re perfect for households with furry friends.
🏠 Recommended locations at home
Place your Air Plant in areas like well-lit bathrooms, kitchens, or any spot with indirect sunlight. They make excellent decorative pieces on shelves or desks, especially in their stylish black ceramic pots.
🌿 Air Purifying
Tillandsia has air-purifying qualities, helping to remove impurities and improve air quality in your home—another fantastic reason to add one to your plant family.
✨ Other Plant Features
Aside from their striking looks and easy-care nature, Air Plants can bloom with beautiful flowers and adapt to various creative displays, making them versatile additions to your home décor.

We’re a small family business with a big love for plants.
From our base in Aberdeen, we pack every order with care and love. Our small size means we can be flexible with special requests, and we’re always happy to help. We reuse packaging, craft our own eco-friendly products, and offer friendly advice whenever you need it.
Fantastic service as always from Pam, Craig and the Team! Added bonus to get to meet Angus the new puppy!
Great website and very communicative with delivery updates. Minor issue with the interface for the aroid plants bundle: I was unable to select both the base and extension pole, so had to add the latter separately.
Really lovely selection of plants photographed beautifully. I had a question before placing my order and used the online contact form. Craig couldn’t have been more helpful with a super quick response which resolved my query completely. My order was delivered on time and the plants and accessories were wrapped so beautifully with thoughtful little extras which made opening everything really special. I even got a ‘wee gift’ with my order and although I was aware from the website that one would be included with my order, it was just another example of a company who really wants to connect with the customers, even though there must be a financial commitment. I found the website full of useful articles and being able to access specific care guides for my purchases has been extremely useful.
The plants are well taken care of and from the few times I’ve bought from them never had any issues with the plants. 10/10 care would definitely recommend buying either only or in person.
