🌿 Tillandsia Ionantha – Care Tips

Tillandsia ionantha is one of the most popular air plant species, admired for its compact rosette form, soft silvery-green leaves, and vibrant color transformation—turning bright red or pink before blooming with a purple flower. It’s an easy-care favorite for terrariums, wall art, or driftwood mounts.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light

• Can handle some morning sun

• Indoors: place near a bright window or under grow lights

💧 Water

• Soak in room-temperature water for 15–30 minutes once a week

• In dry environments: mist 2–3 times a week or soak more frequently

• Always shake off excess water and dry upside down to prevent rot

• Avoid letting water sit in the base of the rosette

🌿 Humidity & Temperature

• Loves moderate to high humidity (ideal for bathrooms!)

• Comfortable between 15–30°C (59–86°F)

• Protect from frost and cold drafts

🌱 Mounting & Display

• Use non-toxic glue, wire, or string to mount on wood, shells, crystals, or frames

• Ensure good air circulation

• Avoid closed containers with poor airflow

🍃 Fertilizer

• Optional: Use a diluted bromeliad or air plant fertilizer once a month during growing season

• Add to water during soaking or misting

✂️ Maintenance

• Remove dried leaves gently

• After blooming, it produces offsets (pups)—wait until they’re 1/3 the size of the mother to separate

Tillandsia ionantha brings a bold pop of color and character to any space, making it a perfect plant for modern décor, small gifts, or minimalist plant collections.
