Exposure & location
Tillandsia appreciate bright indirect light and good air circulation. Avoid direct sun in summer which can burn the leaves.
- Exposure: bright indirect light to partial shade, avoid direct sun in summer.
- Ideal: near a bright window, hanging, on a shelf, in an open terrarium, on driftwood or pebbles.
- Temperature: 15 to 25 °C, tolerates moderate variations.
- Air circulation: essential — avoid confined spaces without ventilation.
- Support: no substrate needed — place on shells, pebbles, wood, metal, glass or hang with transparent thread.
Verdeia tip: Tillandsia love bright bathrooms where natural humidity suits them perfectly.
Watering & care
- Watering: regular misting or water bath — Tillandsia absorb water through their leaves.
- Misting: 2-3 times per week with non-calcareous water (rainwater or filtered water ideal).
- Water bath: once every 2 weeks, soak 20-30 minutes in room temperature water.
- Drying: crucial — after misting or bathing, gently shake and let dry upside down in a ventilated place.
- Summer frequency: increase to 3-4 mistings per week when it’s hot.
- Winter frequency: reduce to 1-2 times per week if the air is dry due to heating.
- Fertilizer: optional — once a month in spring-summer with very diluted orchid fertilizer (1/4 dose).
- Cleaning: gently remove dry leaves at the base.
The secret of Tillandsia: good drying after watering! Stagnant water inside the plant can cause it to rot. Always shake after misting and let dry upside down.
Decor ideas & DIY creations
With 10 Tillandsia, the creative possibilities are endless! Here are some ideas to showcase these fascinating air plants:
- Hanging suspensions: hang with transparent fishing line at different heights to create a hanging garden.
- Open terrarium: compose in an open glass jar with pebbles, sand, and driftwood.
- Wall plant frame: attach to mesh or wooden frame to create a living plant picture.
- On driftwood: place or gently glue on branches, bark, or driftwood for a natural effect.
- Shells & pebbles: nest in shells or place on pebbles for a zen marine decor.
- Metal supports: use geometric metal supports in gold or black for a modern style.
- Plant wreath: create a decorative wreath by attaching to a metal or wicker ring.
- Creative gifts: offer individually with personalized stand for 10 original gifts.
- Centerpiece: arrange on a tray with candles and natural elements.
- Aerial Kokedama: surround with moss and hang with natural string.
Tillandsia can be glued with special plant glue or non-toxic silicone, but prefer to wedge them naturally to be able to remove them easily during water baths.

FAQ – Everything to know before adopting your Verdeia plant
How are my plants prepared before shipping?
All our plants are selected from our European partner nurseries. Before shipping, they are watered, cleaned, and protected with breathable, secure packaging. Each package is designed to ensure your plant arrives in perfect health, without any transport-related stress.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos accurately represent the variety and the stated size. Since each plant is unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or color may occur — and that’s part of their charm.
What are the delivery times and conditions?
Shipping is done within 48 business hours, with tracked delivery within 2 to 5 business days. Delivery costs €5.60 — free for orders over €50. You will receive a tracking link as soon as the package is shipped.
What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package as soon as you receive it and carefully remove the plant from its packaging. Let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering. If it has been slightly stressed during transport, it will recover its shape after one or two days in the light.
What to do if my plant arrives damaged?
Contact us within 48 hours with a photo of the issue. Our team will assess the situation and offer you the best solution: replacement, partial refund, or recovery advice.
Can I return a plant?
Since plants are living beings, standard returns are not possible. However, we guarantee good health upon delivery: if the plant arrives damaged, it will be replaced free of charge. For any other cases (order error, decorative pot, accessory), returns are possible within 14 days.
