What? Tillandsia? What on earth is it? It has another name-"Air Flower". Why does it have such a name? This is about the most important feature of the air pineapple-it does not need to be planted in the soil, of course, there is no need for hydroponics, yes! You heard me right, it can grow in the air!

Air pineapple is a very qualified "left-behind child" in the plant world. You don't need special care at all, but you can still take good care of yourself. But relatively speaking, there is a disadvantage, that is, slow growth (you can live without soil and water, you can be forgiven for growing slowly)

There are many varieties of air pineapple. At present, there are more than 500 kinds, each of which has different shapes and looks like. It is impossible to predict what it will look like. The flower with such tenacious vitality can release itself unscrupulously if you give it some air. Combined with its own characteristics, air pineapple is the first choice for lazybones to grow flowers.

Its spikes grow compactly, and one by one the florets are hidden between the leaves of the bud. Its fruit can crack automatically when it is ripe! Then you can see seeds with feathery feathers! Isn't God magical? It's like magic! And it just needs you to spray it with water.

In fact, the root system of air pineapple is just a device, it does not use the root system to absorb water and nutrients. So what's the secret to its survival? It lies in the countless hairs on its leaves. So see why it needs neither soil nor hydroponics?

Most air pineapple varieties are drought-tolerant, and only a few prefer slightly humid environments. I have nothing to tell you about the cultivation of air pineapple, as long as flower friends still remember that you still have such a plant! Then spray water on its leaves, be careful not to spray on the roots, otherwise it is easy to die.

The frequency of spraying water to the air pineapple should not be frequent. If the temperature is high and the air is dry, spray once every two or three days. If the temperature is suitable and the sunshine is not strong, you can spray once in 5-7 days. If there is a rainy season or high humidity in the air, there is no need to spray it with water. There is enough water vapor in the air to survive.
