Tillandsia Caput-Medusae Care Instructions
Tillandsia Caput-Medusae is very easy to grow. Take your air plants out of the box as soon as they arrive. Follow the easy steps in the air plant care guide included to get started.
+ Water +
Soak your Tillandsia Caput-Medusae once a week in a bowl of water for 10 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. Tillandsia Caput-Medusae absorbs 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 leaves of the air plant after each watering. Place your air plant somewhere with good air circulation to dry them completely within 4 hours of watering. Do not put it under the sun or near heaters/AC units as intense heat and cold temperature can damage the plant.
+ Light +
Tillandsia Caput-Medusae likes bright, indirect light. Display your air plant 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 Caput-Medusae does best in warm environments between 50 – 80 F. It needs good air circulation and some humidity as well.
