Description

Tillandsia flexuosa, the twisted airplant, is a species of bromeliad in the genus Tillandsia. Tillandsia Flexuosa’s foliage twists and turns as it grows and often creates a wonderful spiral shape. The green leaves are decorated with dark stripes/banding, hence this species is often called the ‘banded air plant’ or twisted air plant, flexuous wild-pine, and the striped air plant.

Landscape Uses

Ornamental plants which are great for attracting birds.

 

Air plants are unique - they Don't need soil, absorbing water and nutrients through scales on their leaves. Although caring for air plants is really easy, but if not done right it can quickly lead to the plant drying up.

Air plants need regular sprinkling of water on their leaves. However once a week, air plants need to be submerged in water. Take a big enough container and fully submerge your air plant for 3-4 hours. Once soaked, you need to dry them off completely! Hence shake them and put them on a soft towel. Place them under a bright spot for 2-3 hours so that there is no excess water on it. Make sure to dry them or air plants get a root rot very quickly.

Bright filtered or indirect light is ideal for air plants. Morning sun is healthy for the plants, however afternoon sun can quickly burn the leaves. Use a fertiliser once a month in the water when you soak the air plants to keep it healthy.
