Tillandsia ionantha key facts

Growing Difficulty
Beginner-friendly
Lifespan
5-10 years
Size
5-10cm
Temperature
10〜30℃
Watering
Add liquid fertilizer to misting once monthly
Placement
Bright indirect light with good air circulation
Watering
Mist 2-3x/week. Soak in water for 30min once a month
Temperature & Overwintering
Grows at 10-30°C. Bring it into a warm room in winter, and in hot weather ensure airflow so it does not stew.
Soil & Repotting
No soil is needed; mount it on driftwood or wire. The roots only anchor it, so nutrients are absorbed through the leaf trichomes.
Fertilizer
Once a month, add diluted liquid fertilizer to the misting water. Strong fertilizer damages the trichomes, so keep it dilute.
Notes
Sensitive to moisture. Dry upside down after soaking
