Frequently Asked Questions
Can the ring be hung on the wall instead of placed down? Yes — the ring has a hanging loop at the top that allows it to be hung directly on the wall like a plant frame. So it can be used both ways: placed on its stand on a surface, or hung on the wall.
How long does a Tillandsia live? Several years under good conditions. A well-cared-for Tillandsia — regular misting, weekly soaking, bright indirect light, non-calcareous water — can live 5 years or more. At the end of its life, it produces offsets called stolons that give rise to new plants.

🌿 Soil-free air plant • 🖤 Included black metal ring stand • ☀️ Bright indirect light • 💧 Mist 2-3 times a week • 📏 Ø17 cm — H30 cm • 🐾 Non-toxic
This Tillandsia on a metal ring is an air plant suspended in a circular matte black metal ring, set on its stand - a decorative object as much as a living plant. The Tillandsia grows without soil, attached to the ring, and absorbs water and nutrients directly through its leaves. Dimensions: Ø17 cm, total height 30 cm.
No substrate, no pot, minimal care - one of the most original and easiest plants in our catalogue. Non-toxic to animals. A reliable choice among hanging and decorative plants.
Tillandsia - a soil-free plant
Tillandsias are epiphytes - they naturally grow attached to tree branches or rocks, without ever touching the ground. They absorb water and nutrients directly through their leaves, thanks to tiny scales called trichomes.
- No substrate - no potting soil, no repotting.
- No pot - the plant is placed on or fixed to its support.
- Watering by misting - moisten the leaves, not the roots.
- Slow, long-lasting growth - a well-cared-for Tillandsia lasts for many years.
The variety supplied may vary depending on availability - you will always receive a Tillandsia with fine silver-grey-green leaves, suited to the ring support.
Other ways to display a Tillandsia
Tillandsia comes in many formats and supports in our catalogue:
- Tillandsia on a metal ring (this product) - circular ring on a stand, freestanding decorative object. The most stylish.
- Set of 2 Tillandsias on an LED support - duo with integrated lighting. The most spectacular.
- Tillandsia King Xero - large variety with impressive foliage. The most architectural.
- Tillandsia Super Silver XL - spectacular silvery foliage, XL size. The most silvery.
- Tillandsia Air Mix - Set of 5 - small air plants to arrange freely. The most versatile.
Care - simple but regular
- Light: bright indirect light - near a window, never in direct sunlight.
- Watering: mist the leaves 2 to 3 times a week. In summer or very dry conditions, increase the frequency.
- Soaking: once a week, remove the Tillandsia from its ring and immerse it for 30 minutes in low-mineral water - filtered or rainwater. Gently shake it and let it air-dry before putting it back in place.
- Drainage: after soaking, turn the plant upside down to drain water from the centre - stagnant water in the centre causes rot.
- Temperature: 15–27 °C, with no frost or cold drafts.
Hard tap water leaves white deposits on the leaves and slows growth. Use filtered water or water left to stand for 24 hours for misting and soaking.
Decorating ideas
The black metal ring stand is a decorative object in its own right - it can be placed on a surface like a living botanical sculpture.
- On a desk or console table: standing alone, the ring creates a minimalist graphic focal point - the Tillandsia suspended in the centre immediately draws the eye.
- As part of a composition: pair it with other geometric decorative objects - wood, concrete, ceramics - for a cohesive industrial or minimalist style.
- As a gift: original, long-lasting and easy to care for - a botanical gift that stands out from the ordinary. A lovely idea among botanical gifts.
The ring can also be hung on the wall using the integrated hanging ring at the top - two ways to use a single object.
Verdeia tips
- Weekly soaking is essential - misting alone is not enough to hydrate the plant sufficiently over the long term. Combine regular misting with weekly soaking for a healthy, vigorous plant.
- Dry thoroughly after soaking - turn the Tillandsia upside down and gently shake it to drain water from the centre before placing it back on the ring. Stagnant water in the centre is the main cause of plant loss.
- Avoid hard water - white deposits clog the trichomes and prevent the plant from absorbing moisture properly. Filtered or rainwater only. The first few days matter: a few simple steps help you welcome a new plant.
- 🐾 Non-toxic - Tillandsia is completely safe for dogs and cats.

Our Verdeia commitments
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.
