Oh WOW AWESOME video Nina :-D I absolutely LOVE Tillandsia Air Plants, and this is a really INCREDIBLE care video on these amazing plants, I have quite a few Tillandsias in my bathroom and kitchen, they really are wonderful and unique plants to grow, and out of all the Tillandsia vids I have watched this video is THE BEST and most informative I have ever seen on You Tube, thank you so much Nina for sharing this amazing video on caring for Tillandsias, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER to Spain for a wonderful evening and weekend ahead XXXX <3

There is one thing about Tillandsias that really sets them apart from other houseplants: Random piece of wood + Tillandsia + Time = a gracefull "in situ" looking display without any effort, even in non ideal conditions. Trying to achieve the same result with an orchid would require a greenhouse with significantly more care.

I love airplants ❤❤❤

Hi Nina! Thank goodness I have only three accidental tillies….that is enough. Of all the old dried up maintenance you do 🤪 but your babies obviously love it. And they can get scale? Omg! 🤬 Go git em! You have a great Sunday! ❤
-
Great video. What a cool variety of air plants! They look so nice and big. I hope one day my tectorum can look as nice. 😊
-
🦒👏❤️💐 I had no idea Tillandsias can be attacked by scale 😮 You have some very beautiful ones!!! I am guilty of forgetting to water mine, most of the time, fortunately they are very forgiving 😅

Nice plants! You have a talent for arranging them beautifully 😍

I would not have expected them to be attractive to scale. Those things are just a scourge, the pest I hate the most.
