Planta aeriana Tillandsia Bulbosa
Tillandsia bulbosa is one of the most spectacular air plants, known for its twisted and contorted leaves that emerge from a bulbous base, creating a sculptural, almost coral-like effect. It is a perfect choice for modern decor, terrariums, or hanging supports, bringing a touch of exotic nature to any space.
🌸 Characteristics:
– Epiphytic plant, does not need soil to live.
– Its leaves may take on reddish hues during the flowering period.
– Produces a delicate, tubular inflorescence with purple-violet flowers.
– Ideal for mounting on bark, wood, stone, or in decorative globes.
💡 Care:
Light: intense or filtered indirect light; avoid direct and prolonged sun exposure.
Watering: by spraying 2–3 times a week or soaking in room temperature water for 15–20 minutes, followed by complete drying.
Humidity: prefers warm and humid environments (60–80%).
Temperature: ideal between 18–28°C.
Fertilization: once a month, with diluted fertilizer for orchids or air plants.
Mounting: on natural supports, without substrate – the roots attach to wood or stone only for support.
⚠️ Note: The leaves may show small dryness at the tips or imperfections caused by transport and humidity fluctuations – a normal aspect that does not affect the plant's viability.
