To make Tillandsia more beautiful and healthy, it is recommended to remove completely dry or damaged leaves and remove the inflorescences.
Place it indoors or outdoors in summer when the weather is nice.
Temperatures ranging from 10°C to 30°C on average .
Water with rainwater or demineralized water . You can either soak the Tillandsia for a few seconds in water or spray it on the foliage .
In winter, watering every two days is sufficient. In summer, and generally when the air is hot and dry, spraying should be done 1 to 2 times a day.
Plants must dry between two waterings .
In spring and summer, it is beneficial to spray the Tillandsia with orchid fertilizer diluted to a quarter , twice a month . Tillandsia, in our latitudes, do not find the nutrients that are suitable for their growth in good conditions, hence the need to give them a little helping hand.
Avoid direct sunlight in summer, especially during hot hours.
In winter, find a bright place.
