Tillandsia ionantha Abdita – Air Plant Cube Mix – Ø20 cm x H20 cm
💨 Soil-free • 🌿 Air plant • ✨ Minimalist design • 🏙️ Ideal for small spaces • 💧 Easy care
The Tillandsia ionantha Abdita, or air plant, is a tropical marvel from the bromeliad family. Native to Central and South America, it lives without soil, absorbing water and nutrients directly through its leaves.
Presented in a decorative Cube Mix, it becomes a true plant design object: minimalist, modern, and poetic. Its tender green leaves turn pink or red during flowering, adding a colorful and exotic touch to your urban interior.
Exposure & placement
- Exposure: partial shade or soft indirect light.
- Avoid direct full sun, which dries out the foliage.
- Ideal for studios, offices, or bright spaces in the home.
- Perfectly suited for a bright bathroom or a designer shelf.
Verdeia tip: install your Tillandsia in a bright bathroom to naturally benefit from ambient humidity.
Care & watering
- Watering: lightly mist or soak in clear water once every 8–10 days.
- Let dry in open air after each watering.
- Preferably use non-calcareous or rainwater.
- Ideal temperature: 16–26 °C.
- Enjoys a slightly humid atmosphere (bathroom, kitchen, etc.).
A 10-minute bath every 2 weeks is enough to keep your Tillandsia in great shape.
Growing tips
- Never leave stagnant water in the cube or the support.
- Place the plant in a bright space but without direct sunlight.
- Combine with other air plants for an artistic hanging or wall composition.
- Light rotation every week for harmonious growth.
Tillandsia feeds on air: regular misting is enough for its well-being.
Decor ideas & plant combinations
- Match with a design terrarium for a modern and clean look.
- Pair with succulents for minimalist decor.
- Combine with a orchid or a Anthurium for a refined tropical touch.
- Create a hanging composition with several Tillandsia of different sizes.
In a transparent cube, it becomes a natural work of art between sculpture and plant poetry.
Verdeia Tips
- Prefers a bright location, sheltered from direct sunlight.
- Regularly mist the leaves, especially in summer or dry air.
- Do not bury the base: Tillandsia lives only from air and humidity.
- Avoid direct heat sources (radiator, halogen).
Minimalist and graphic, the Tillandsia is the perfect plant to green a contemporary interior without constraints.

Each package is designed to ensure that your plant arrives in perfect health and without stress related to transport.
Will the plant look exactly like the photo?
The photos shown are true to the variety and the announced size (pot diameter and approximate height).
Each plant being unique, slight differences in shape, foliage, or shade may exist — that is what makes them so charming!
What are the delivery times and conditions?

What to do upon receiving my plant?
Open your package upon receipt, carefully remove the plant from its packaging and let it acclimate for 24 hours in its new environment before watering it.
If it has slightly suffered from transport, it will quickly regain its shape after one or two days in the light.
Can I put this plant outside?
It depends on the species. Most indoor plants prefer a bright place without direct sunlight, while outdoor plants like more direct light.
