Description: Tillandsia neglecta ‘Dark Leaf’, as the name suggests is a variety of T. neglecta with darker foliage than the standard green.

Tillandsia neglects is native to Rio de Janeiro and is a saxicolous species, meaning it grows on the surface of rocks and cliff faces. They enjoy being grown in bright, indirect light and fairly dry conditions. This plant is caulescent and the foliage is highly curved, short and stiff in structure. The foliage is mostly green in colour, however it can have a bronze tinge to it when kept under high light conditions. The flower of Tillandsia neglecta is similar to that of T. stricta, having a pink inflorescence which will produce delicate mauve flowers. This plant produces many pups along its stem, quickly forming a large clump. This species will flower in July (Winter).

Position: Growing this species indoors is possible. However you will need to make sure it is next to a window with bright light, and good air flow. This species will thrive outside under bright, but indirect sunlight. Under a tree, verandah or deck, or in a shadehouse are all great locations for this plant. Ensure the location you choose has good air flow to help the plant dry out between watering. This species can withstand low temperatures, however it must be protected from frost. This species can be grown suspended or mounted on a solid substrate that does not retain water (timber, cork bark, etc). You can attach this plant to the surface using coated wire, fishing line, or an adhesive such as silicone, hot glue, or no-more nails. Do not cover the base of the plant with moss or any other substrate as it may rot.

Watering: As a general rule, a plant in a hot position will require watering every 2-3 days. In a dark, humid environment watering once per week can often be adequate. This can be achieved by misting or dunking the plant. If outdoors, a hose can be used. When dunking a plant, leave submerged in a bowl of water for 10-20 minutes before shaking off excess water. Air plants love to dry out completely between each watering and must never have water sitting at their base as this will cause the plant to rot.

Fertilisation: We recommend fertilising your Air Plants once a fortnight in the warmer months and once a month through winter. We sell Air Plant Fertiliser in our "Accessories" section. Simply give the plant one or two sprays after watering.

 

Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape depending on the season. Flowering plants are sent when available.

Beautiful but Straps don't stay up
Size: 7, Color: Pink
The shoe is gorgeous and it's a great concept. But the straps will keep coming down and gathering around your ankle. My daughter hated them.

Perfect
Size: 9, Color: Black
These are my second pair of heels from Allegra K, I originally got the nude pair, and after wearing those all night I had to buy a black pair! I don’t use heels so these were comfortable enough to last me all night while still looking nice instead of using flats!
