The Xerographica is a slow-growing favourite among many Tillandsia enthusiasts. It's a stately plant characterised by its full and elegant spherical shape and soothing shade of muted moss-green. It is quite robust and can stand on its own, and makes for a wonderful ornamental plant, paired with a simple display stand or vessel. 

They are fun plants to style and arrange as they can be placed, with a little bit of moss, in a number of unique houses or, simply strung up. Air plants love bright light, humidity and... surprise! Air! 

Air Plants hang out at lofty heights in their natural South and Central American environment, so if you adopt one or five of these beauties, be sure to keep them out of potting soil!
