Tillandsia usneoides 'Spanish moss'

Air plant, Bromeliad, Tillandsia usneoides 'Spanish Moss'

This amazing plant is a wonder of nature; in habitat it appears to live only in air. It is a member of the air plant family. A plant consists of hundreds if not thousands of individual plants, growing in long strings, with new plants forming at the tip. 

Spanish moss does not produce roots and can be tied or draped on objects, the moss grows well in shade outdoors or in good light indoors, avoid hot or dry environments. Watering is essential for good growth, a soaking every day or two in summer and fortnightly in winter will keep the plant at peak condition.
