Tillandsia Ionantha Green | Air Plant

The Ionantha Air Plant is native to Central America and Mexico and typically grows on trees and shrubs. Its lush, silvery-grey leaves and vibrant red flowers lasting 4-6 weeks make it a favourite among plant enthusiasts.

To thrive, these plants require high humidity, making a well-lit bathroom or steamy kitchen a perfect environment. Misting with water a few times a week is usually sufficient, but in dry and hot climates, additional watering may be necessary. Be sure to shake off any excess water, as these plants do not tolerate overwatering and should not be left sitting in water. It is recommended to use rainwater, especially in areas with hard water, and avoid using water from a water softener.
