?How do you water your air plant?
As mentioned above these plants are so easy to maintain as they require minimal effort. I have however listed the important things you need to do.
- Summer: Spray weekly
- If temperatures exceed 35 degrees spray twice a week.
- Winter- Spray every second week.
- If in doubt, rather don’t water .Tillandsias Air-Plants in particular do not like to be too wet.
I love reading about the benefits too. I found a very interesting article that suggests that these plants purify the air we breathe. If you are interested in reading more about health benefits click here.
