Tillandsia Streptophylla is a truly unique species of air plant that is native to Central America, Mexico, and the West Indies. It is often mistaken as a small-sized Tillandsia Xerographica because its growth habits can be similar. Its leaves are silvery-green in appearance due to the plant's prominent trichomes. Growth habits can be wild and unpredictable - leaves can either jut out in a fountain shape or curl downwards around the base of the plant, making every plant in this species unique to itself!
When in bloom, Tillandsia Streptophylla puts on quite the display! It forms large, complex flowering bracts in green or red hues and produces violet coloured flowers. The flowering process for this species can take a while - up to several weeks! For more interesting facts about air plants, check out our blog article THE LIFE CYCLE OF AIR PLANTS

Care Tips:
- Provide plenty of bright to direct or dappled sunlight to help this plant stay happy and to help encourage blooming.
- For watering, use rain, distilled, or tap water that has been left out to dechlorinate for 24 hours first
- Soak once every other week for 30 mins to an hour. Mist occasionally in between soaks using a Mister Spray Bottle. Adjust this schedule as needed according to how dry or humid your space is. This species is drought tolerant and prefers frequent misting over long soaks.
- Place upside-down someplace with good air circulation to allow the plant to dry after watering.
