🌿 Air Plant Care Guide

To ensure your new Tillandsia stays happy and healthy in its spooky home, follow these simple care steps:

Light Requirements

- Bright, Indirect Light: Place your terrarium in a room with plenty of light, but keep it out of direct afternoon sun. Direct, harsh sunlight can scorch the leaves and overheat the glass.

Watering Your Air Plant

Because this open terrarium features preserved moss and decorative elements, do not pour water directly into the glass bowl. Instead, care for your air plant using one of these two methods:

- The Mist Method: Mist your air plant heavily with a spray bottle 2–3 times a week. Focus on wetting the leaves, not the center core.
- The Soak Method (Recommended): Pop your air plant out of the terrarium once a week. Submerge it completely in a bowl of room-temperature water for 20–30 minutes.

Critical Step: Drying

- Shake and Dry: After soaking or heavy misting, gently shake any excess water out of the plant upside down.
- Air It Out: Let the plant dry completely upside down on a towel for 2–4 hours before putting it back into the glass. If water gets trapped inside the base of the plant inside the glass, it will rot.
