Air Plant Care Instructions
Light
● Place your air plant in bright, indirect sunlight.
● Avoid direct sun exposure for extended periods, especially midday.
Water
● Soak your air plant in room-temperature water for 20–30 minutes once a week.
● In drier climates or during hot months, soak twice a week.
● After soaking, gently shake off excess water and let it dry upside down on a towel for 2–4 hours to prevent rot.
Air Circulation
● Ensure your plant dries fully within 4 hours. Good air flow helps prevent mold and rot.
Temperature
● Keep your air plant in temperatures between 50–90°F (10–32°C).
● Avoid freezing temperatures or placing near heat sources.
Fertilizing (Optional)
● Use a bromeliad or air plant fertilizer once a month, diluted to ¼ strength.
● Add it to the soaking water for a nutrient boost.
Trimming
● You can trim brown or dry leaf tips with clean scissors. Cut at an angle for a natural look.
Display
● Avoid sealing air plants in containers without airflow (e.g., closed terrariums).
● Use open containers, shells, wood, or hang them with wire or string.
