No Green Thumb, No Problem

Posted by dani handrian

Tillandsias make the perfect houseplant for those of us with a not-so-green thumb. More commonly known as air plants, these unique beauties are in the bromeliad family. They are commonly found in southern regions of North America as well as growing on trees in areas of Central and South America. Such plants are known as epiphytes and do not require soil for nourishment.

As houseplants, tillandsias can often be seen attached to pieces of driftwood or even interesting stones. Primary care is simply bright filtered sunlight and a thorough weekly misting. Always refer to care instructions for more details on your specific plant.

There are so many varieties of air plants. These are a few we recently installed in the casino coffee shop.
