*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 will wear these all summer!
Size: 8, Color: Black/Black
These sandals are definitely a platform if you’re looking for a bit of height but they’re also well made, comfortable and in my opinion much firmer support than another popular brand. They look great and they’re versatile. I purchased the black ones the color is a true deep black not gray-ish at all.

VERY comfortable & cute sandal!
Size: 9, Color: Cognac
I needed a pair of comfortable sandals for this summer & I really got lucky with these. I have a lot of arthritis in my feet & even my $100(+) tennis shoes don’t keep the pain away. I may start with tennis shoes at the beginning of the day but 1/2 way through I slip on the Hey Dudes & all is much better! These sandals are versatile, I have worn them with jeans & shorts. They would also look nice with a skirt. They are cute & comfortable! Not only are they lightweight, it feels like you are walking on air because the sole is so cushioned. One thing I do want to mention is the fact there is A LOT of room given toward the front of the shoe. The strap that goes over the ball of your foot is looser than I am used to, even with wide feet. You aren’t able to make adjustments. When I first put them on I didn’t think I would like it but after wearing them every day for the past month I know I do. I would recommend these sandals & wonder if I should stock up in case they stop making this style??

Cushy softness
Size: 8, Color: Ivory
I’m normally a 7W and originally ordered the 7 and it was almost a perfect fit if not for my high instep. Exchanged for an 8 and they fit great just a little loose in the toe strap but I can make it work.
