Tillandsia harrisii 4"+
Ecosystem: Arid and Tropical
T. harrisii varies in pigmentation when exposed to high bright light versus one that gets normal lighting. More light means purple blush. This species is really hardy and can tolerate less water due to the trichomes ( hair-like coating) on the plant. When touched, it has a velvety feel that works well with many designs. The bloom spike is a spectacular showcase in its own too, exposing a green or pink bud with purple flowers and yellow stamens.
NOTE: THE PLANT YOU RECEIVE MAY NOT BE IN BLOOM. IMAGE IS AN EXAMPLE.

Care Instructions
Air plants prefer bright indirect light. Air plants are prone to getting a bit “fried” in direct sunlight, especially when it is amplified through a glass window or terrarium.
Your plants should be watered once per week, and 2-3 times is recommended for optimal care. A longer, 2-hour soak is recommended every 2-3 weeks. If you are in a drier, hotter climate, more frequent watering or misting will be needed.
