Tillandsia stricta
The Tillandsia stricta is an air plant is known for its bright pink flowers and deep green to purple, densely clustered leaves. We select from 'Magenta', 'Gigante', 'Black Beauty' and other cultivars, which stand alone on a shelf or in glass as a centerpiece, but can also easily fit into a terrarium or be mounted to wood or cork. Naturally growing on the crooks of trees in jungle climates, air plants provide an easy way to bring a bit of the tropics into your home, and can even flower when the plant reaches maturity.
PLANT CARE
• Light: Medium to bright indirect light
• Water: Submerge in room temperature water once a week for about 5 minutes. Turn plant upside-down after soaking to allow excess water to run off. Mist periodically
• Considerations: Ensure Tillandsia dry completely within 3 hours after soaking - good air circulation is vital. To encourage blooming, use an epiphytic fertilizer. Reduce watering in winter
