*Air plant only, cholla pot sold separately

The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador is a xerophytic low-maintenance plant that needs more direct light and less water than any other Tillandsia. Native to the arid Andes in Peru and Ecuador, this Bromeliaceae family member has its leaves adapted for extreme weather conditions. Thus, the dense fuzzy white trichomes reflect the ultra-violet rays in native conditions. This plant grows anywhere between 6 to 8 inches but can be shorter or taller depending on the growing needs. The air plant is lightweight due to its snowball appearance. This winter-dormant Tectorum Ecuador grows slowly at a snail’s pace with the potential to bloom anytime during the year.

Growth Rate
The Tectorum Ecuador air plant is hugely slow-growing.

Flowering
The light pink Tillandsia flower grows out of reddish bracts on a mature Tectorum air plant.

Watering and Feeding
Compared to all other Tillandsias, the Tillandsia tectorum ecuador demands less watering due to the presence of so many trichomes. Soaking in water is a big no. Misting once every third week is ideal. This plant should be completely dry within an hour of misting. In drier climates, the frequency of misting may be increased, and in a humid climate, it may be decreased.

Soil
No soil is required for the plant. An essential Tillandsia Tectorum care tip is surrounding your air plant with rocks, sand, sea glass, or shells but not moss or soil.

Hardiness
The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador air plant grows well in hardiness zones of 10 and above. It is crucial to note that these air plants cannot tolerate temperatures less than 30° to 40°F (-1.1° to 4.4°C).

Light
Another important Tectorum Ecuador air plant care tip is that the plant grows well in direct sunlight.

Propagation
Offsets at the base of the air plant necklace are the best way for propagation.

The beautiful snowballs of drought-resistant Tectorum Ecuador are exceptionally popular. With their marked distinct identify, your air plant collection will go a notch higher with these around.

I have special needs so, please read my review.
Color: White, Size: X-Large
Edit I decided to wear it inside under my clothes as a liner, it shrank too short so not it is uncomfortable to tuck in after I hand washed and dried on delicate until half dry and hung. I will start for anyone that need a soft first layer try this shirt, it fits nicely and it doesn't pull under my arms, I have larger bust measurements compared to by rib cage. It is soft out of the bag and first wash came out nice ,( hand wash) The shirt is a perfect thickness for me! I loved it so much, EXCEPT for the inner arm seam, I so wish the arms were seamless, it was painful for ME, I have Fibromyalgia and this felt like torture by the end of the day, this was too bad for me because otherwise the shirt is GOLD. Buy the shirt I am going to try to scrub the seam and see if I can soften it up a bit . Maybe this company has a seamless version, I would love to know this.. I cannot comment of durability and washability,

My favorite undershirt with boleros & crop tops
Color: Black, Size: Small
Not overly thick or thin - it’s just right for staying warm and wearing under crop tops and boleros. Form fitting but not uncomfortably snug. Great quality! I now own 3 and might get one more since I bought a bunch of new crop tops and boleros.
