check_circle In Stock
Tillandsia flexuosa (Viviparous Form) is a striking air plant known for its ability to reproduce viviparously—producing offsets or "pups" directly on the inflorescence while still attached to the parent plant. This form is a variation of Tillandsia flexuosa, a species native to a broad range spanning southern Florida, the Caribbean, Central America, and northern South America.
Care Tips
- Light: Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
- Water: Mist the plant thoroughly 2-3 times a week, ensuring that excess water drains away. Alternatively, you can soak the plant in a bowl of water for 20-30 minutes once a week. Allow the plant to dry completely before returning it to its display location.
- Air Circulation: Good air circulation is crucial for Tillandsias. Ensure that the plant is not placed in a stagnant or enclosed environment.
- Temperature: Maintain warm temperatures between 15-29°C (59-85°F) for optimal growth.
- Fertiliser: Use a diluted bromeliad or orchid fertiliser once a month during the growing season (spring and summer).
- Mounting: Tillandsia flexuosa can be mounted on various surfaces, such as driftwood, cork bark, or even decorative rocks. Use fishing line, wire, or glue to securely attach the plant to its mount.
