Thank you, Nell. You have a big collection of Tillandsias!

@JoyUsGarden 11 лет назад

chatbud - Yes I do! Some I've had for years now & some I got from a local greenhouse where the tillandsias we sell come from. More tillandsia videos to come. Thanks for watching!

I loved your presentation. I have many other varieties of house plants but just recently discovered Airplants. I just ordered around 24 large ones. Thanks for teaching me about them. I loved your personalized tips ( well done) also I love how you explained the water portion and techniques behind that. Thank you

This video really helped me understand more about air plants! Thank you. I am planning in getting a few to put on shelves in my bedroom, but i have quite a few cats and I didn't know if it was safe or not, but thanks for warning me about the chewing 😄 I'll make sure to takw good care of my plants.

I bought my very first one (along with some cacti) today at a little stall in Manchester, it's so cute and a very easy plant to take care of! Thanks for this video, it's a life saver x

I'm new to airplants, and I love them, I must have been under a very big rock :) Now I'm obssessed with them, the only place so far I've found some, I'm in Canada, is on amazon, and I was really impressed with the quality and the fact that they did not die during transit. You have a beautiful collection and now a new subbie :)

@anniejerebic4233 5 лет назад

Joanne Sabourin which site on amazon did you go? Did they arrive a seeds or plants! How long in transit and did any die! Would like to order as well but scared cause it will be awhile before I get them three to four weeks!

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

They do well outdoors here - thanks!

@meep2576 4 года назад

Mine were outside in the shade all summer and it got to 90 degrees and they did okay but I would mist them a couple times a day and soak once a week in rainwater

@decor_art_mignon_lovehouse 5 лет назад

There are so many kinds of Tilandians. Thank you for the video with the good information ^-----^

@zsofiathompson7501 5 лет назад

Would have been nice to see some arrangements around the house :) I never heard of this plant before so can't imagine just leave them in a pot?

@terrie6719 8 лет назад

Your arrangement is beautiful. We just had Matthew go through and a lot of limbs came down with air plants on them. Some really big and some small. I see where it talks about submerging the plants couple of times a week as misting them did not give enough water. If you make an arrangement like you did and hot glue it to driftwood then how do you water them.

@JoyUsGarden 8 лет назад

Hi Dave & Terrie - I hope all's well after the storm, it sounds like Matthew did a lot of damage. I generously spray or mist air plants on driftwood (in the sink or bathtub) a couple of times a week. The longest I've every kept an arrangement like in tact was 8 months. nell

@JoyUsGarden 9 лет назад

Hi Marina McKinley Thank you! I didn't know a creature like a rainbow boa existed - what a beauty. I'm sure he will enjoy the tillandsias as much as you. And yes, they are easy care! Nell

Alright! +andrew vincent Air plants are slow to pup (in home environments) so good for you. I'm getting more air plants this week so I'm looking forward to that. Nell

@andrewvincent5472 8 лет назад

They came from a Florida in a greenhouse I have to add.

@JoyUsGarden 8 лет назад

@GalleryAquaticaTV 4 года назад

Hi, Thank you for your great video. We have recently gotten a great collection of air plants, and hope to succeed With them. Wondering regarding soaking ; is using town tap water ok? Ie chlorinated? I have so far been lucky enough to collect rain water but do also have a Reverse osmosis deionisation unit which produces pure water. This RODI water would however maybe be lacking in beneficial elements ?

@dingyitao2547 10 лет назад

Yay it helped me alot! Thanks

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

Ding Yitao - You're welcome!

@adammotto2771 7 лет назад

Thank you Nell. Very thorough. Can spraying more frequently take the place of soaking? I'm reluctant to remove them consistently from their mount. I want the roots to grip the driftwood.

@JoyUsGarden 7 лет назад

Oh yes Adam. I've moved to the Arizona desert & mounted my air plants on cholla wood. I mist them every day when the temps are hot. You probably won't have to do it that often. Nell

@adammotto2771 7 лет назад

Great. Thank you!!

@ralphtomaccio4640 3 года назад

You mentioned that you do not fertilize your air plants because you grow them outdoors and they get their nutrients from the air (3:18). I’m really curious as to what nutrients those would be?

@aeislugh 6 лет назад

out of curiousity...for fertilization. I have an aquarium that I do water changes on once a week. would it be safe to do the dunk in the old aquarium water? water and fertilize them at the same time?

@susanmeissner3316 10 лет назад

Hi! I got a tiny air plant from my daughter for Christmas and a bell shaped pod to attach it to. The plant arrived a few days ago with general instructions. I am not sure how to attach the plant to the pod. The pod is upside-down cup shaped with with a length of twine at the top that I can pull through to, I guess, attach the plant?? The plant is small, similar to the smallest plant on your video. there are two brown, roots to work with. Instructions say to choose two leaves to stick up inside the pod but the pod is five times the size of the plant. I could toss several air plants this size inside and they would all fall out if I turned it over to hang it. Help?? Thanks...

@RES3CO 10 лет назад

You can use e6000 adhesive

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

Hi Susan - I'm just seeing this for the first time. Are you trying to make a ringer out of the air plant? I use E6000, hot glue, tilly hanger or fishing line to attach my air plants. E6000 is water proof by the way.

It was 94 yesterday would it shock them bringing into the house. Mine are on my patio but I did bring them in when it hit 100

What do you do to the bloom once it gets dry? Do you remove dry leaves that are near the root?

@joannesabourin1108 9 лет назад

Maybe you can give me ideas on where I can purchase more air plants keep in mind the supplier must ship to Canada, thank you in advance!

@JoyUsGarden 9 лет назад

Hi Joanne Sabourin We sell air plants on our website but don't ship to Canada because of agriculture laws. Try Tillandsia International or Plant Oddities - you can easily find their websites. I've never ordered from them but I know they ship internationally. Hope that helps! Nell

@cathyguzik6505 10 лет назад

How can I soak my small Tillandsia if they are arranged in a glass hanging ball? Do I need to take them out of the ball every time ? That would be pretty time consuming.

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

Cathy - They naturally have a but more humidity in those glass balls so you could use a spray bottle to mist them. Just be sure to not get them soaking wet.

@cathyguzik6505 10 лет назад

Nell Foster Thanks for the info; that makes it easier.

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

Cathy Guzik You're welcome Cathy!

@marielleviannedy7862 4 года назад

can you just spray water on it everyday instead of soaking it for 2-3days a week?

@storja49 10 лет назад

indoors do you think they can live in a state like Michigan??

@NellFosterjoyusgarden 10 лет назад

Sure Joe. The air indoors tends to be much drier than the outdoors so you'll need to spray them 2 or 3 times a week.

@NightMareOSU 9 лет назад

Would it be a bad idea to put an airplant in rice as a substitute for sand?

@JoyUsGarden 9 лет назад

You could certainly do that NightMareOSU Rock & glass chips work fine too. The only issue with rice would be if you left the air plants in the rice when spraying them - the rice would get sticky. If you take the air plants out to spray or soak them, it would be fine. Using wild rice would be fun too. Best, Nell

@NightMareOSU 9 лет назад

JoyUsGarden Awesome! thank you, I have my cute little tillandsia tricolor melanocrater in a small decorated concrete block with rice in it, seems to be happy there.

@cynthiasepulveda7691 7 лет назад

My plant is hanging by my window that has a screen on it, the sun is never directly on my window and it's mostly shady in my room. Is that enough sunlight or should I place my plant somewhere else?

@cynthiasepulveda7691 7 лет назад

It has mildly thick leaves

@JoyUsGarden 7 лет назад

The ones with thicker leaves can take more sun. Nell

@JoyUsGarden 7 лет назад

Hi Cynthia - They prefer bright light but no direct, hot sun. As I said below, the air plants with thicker leaves can take more sun. Nell
