Air Plant Tillandsia - Spanish Moss

Air plants have stepped into the houseplant spotlight for both their ease of care and the many creative ways they can be displayed. 

They are members of the bromeliad family, that forms a large group of plants in the genus Tillandsia, of which there are hundreds of different species. Air plants are epiphytes that use their small roots to attach themselves to the branches of trees and shrubs, rather than growing in the ground. Because they don’t rob nutrients from their host plant, air plants are not considered parasites. Instead, they just use their host as an anchor and a place to live.
