Tillandsia Balbisiana Velutina Care Instructions

Tillandsia Balbisiana Velutina is very easy to care for. Take your air plant out of the box as soon as your air plant arrives. Follow the easy steps in the air plant care guide included to get started.

+ Water +
Soak your Tillandsia Balbisiana Velutina once to twice a week in a bowl of water for 20 minutes each time. You can also mist your plant with a spray bottle 2-3 times a week if it needs more water between the soakings. Air Plants absorb water through its leaves instead of roots. So flip them upside-down when you give them a bath. Gently shake off any excessive water from the center of the air plant after each watering. Place your plant somewhere with good air circulation to dry them completely within 4 hours of watering. Do not put them under the sun or near heaters/AC units as intense heat and cold temperature can damage the plants.

+ Light +
Tillandsia Balbisiana Velutina likes bright, indirect light. Display your tillandsia somewhere near the window where they can get some indirect light during the day. If you don’t have natural sunlight coming in, office fluorescent lighting would do the job too. Just avoid direct sunlight since the plant can get burnt.

+ Air +
Tillandsia Balbisiana Velutina does best in warm environments between 50 – 90 F. It needs good air circulation and some humidity as well.
