  • This Plant One On Me is the second installment of highlights from TPIE, the largest plant show for Florida-based growers and indoor plants in the U.S.
    I suppose this episode is more of a 2-for-1 kind of deal because we go over both Bromeliad and Tillandsia (air plant) tips-not to mention get a chance to see some beauties up close. Special thanks to both Bromeliad Specialties www.tillandsia.com/ and Bullis Bromeliads bullisbrom.com/ for taking the time to film!
    Stay tuned in the coming weeks because I'll be highlighting more from the show.
    Lastly, many of you know I launched a Kickstarter for How to Make a Plant Love You: Houseplant Masterclass. I've launched it now on Indiegogo InDemand bit.ly/2FfNxle so you can still access the rewards while supporting the buildout of the program!

    I've gotten all my Bromeliad's from the clearance rack at the big box stores. My friends has a tree company and brings me air plants from trees they cut down. One of the perks of living in FL.

    I live in Singapore, a tropical climate country(always summer) and I have some air plant. I find overnight soaking the tillandsia works very well for me. Just have to make sure the next morning shake off all the excess water, put it under the morning sun with natural breeze for about 2 to 4 hours to dry out the air plants completely before put them back to their original position or container. Then the air plant will look good without any misting for 2 weeks.
    My air plants are distributed into different area in the house. The tillandsia that came from dessert area or showing sign of spike or blush, I will put them at the balcony rack with morning sun and shade. Most of my air plant are in my bedroom. I have to turn on air conditioning to sleep every night because of the hot weather Singapore and pair with a humidifier, cause air conditioning make the air dry which is not good for my sensitive nose. I find that this condition is very good for my air plant(good ventilation and moisture) and they are on my side table next to the east facing window so they get the nice morning sun. Lastly, I have 3 air plant hanging on my bathroom window with shade and west sun. Everytime when I shower I will shower them as well and they will dry out with the natural ventilation and this is the only 3 airplant I do not do overnight soaking.

    everyone online keeps saying 15-20 min soak.....I'll trust the guy who grows them and start soaking mine for 2+ hrs!!! thanks for the info Summer

    • @EliezaBaby
      @EliezaBaby 4 роки тому +2

      I agree with you . Online , UA-cam and articles say spray or dunk to soak 15 to 20 minutes . And ... my beauties ended up drying to death .
      Now I soak once every 7 days and mist after 2 days with water around. Now I collect exotic airplants that's fragrant indoor .

    Precious video, esp. on Tillandsia care. Eye opener: Remist if plant dries too fast on first misting.

  • @AaronDavila1
    @AaronDavila1 6 років тому +8

    Awesome video! Just FYI but if you want to see more variety and more rare Bromeliads and Tillandsia. There will be a World Bromeliad Conference in San Diego this May-June. It will showcase rare plants both for show and sale. The commercial vendors just skim the surface for varieties that will sell. But the dedicated Bromeliad grower and vendors grow them all! Thanks again for the video and keep up the awesome work!!! 👍👍👍

    I live in NY and have MANY of these plants - Mostly Vriesea's since I think they are the most beautiful and don't need sun to look pretty (as opposed to Neoregelia's). I have a real passion for them. Needless to say they all live inside my apt and not outdoors. I ONLY water the center cup until it is just about dry (or rather I don't see water in the cup) and they have been doing beautifully! I will water the "soil" once a month. As far as Tillandsia's it doesn't need to be that complicated. I have dunked them for just a few seconds in which case I wouldn't do it again for a week and have recently switched to misting twice or three times a week since I literally have hundreds and it just took too long. I think the most important thing for ALL plants is to used purified, distilled or rain water... NOT water directly out of the tap. All my plants are thriving and I think that makes the biggest difference.

    The air plant guy was very passionate. You can tell it in his voice. I also liked the air plant as hair accesory :)

    P.S. I hope you’ll tackle orchids soon. That’s a topic that’s really intimidating for newbies and I know you could help break it down.

    Loved the air plant guy. So informative. That just happened to me today where I misted all of my maybe 30 air plants and 20 minutes later they were dry, so I gave them another good misting. Now I know I did it right! 😍

  • @newbotany
    @newbotany 6 років тому +1

    Thanks for these fantastic and informative videos!
    Ive grown air plants for over 20 years and I always water them by immersion in a bucket of water. Paul Isley recommends dunking once a week overnight. I often do this for up to 16 hours and this doesn't do any harm. I also add NPK fertiliser at about 1/10 recommended dilution fortnightly in summer.

    You asked all of the right questions, thank you! One of my air plant casualties was my xerographica, I had it for two years and out of nowhere it rotted. Still ticked about it. Ill get another one one day. Until then I have about 15+ other air plants to care for more carefully. Another one on my list is a tectorum. They have them at my nursery but they're 30$!

    • @ashleyjlucio96
      @ashleyjlucio96 6 років тому

      Ariel Christiansen I got a medium size tectorum for $10 at a store in Arlington, Texas. Then I got 2 baby tectorums for 7 bucks online (they sent 2 in case one died)

    • @minicat3640
      @minicat3640 6 років тому

      ashleyjlucio96 awesome! I have found a tectorum since as well, a HUGE one for 20$ from an Ecuadorian lady. After buying however I figured it must have been wild collected to have gotten so big and clumpy. In my guilt I'm taking extremely good care of it... It turns out there are different subspecies of tectorum as well, who knew? Enjoy your babies!
