Know before you buy
Since Tillandsia absorb moisture through their leaves, you should mist the plant regularly or soak it in a bowl of room-temperature water for about 20–30 minutes once a week. After soaking, gently shake off excess water and let it dry completely upside down before placing it back on the skull to prevent rot.
Yes, this air plant is non-toxic and pet-friendly, making it a safe choice for households with curious cats or dogs.
This plant prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct, harsh sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or in a windowless room where it won't receive enough energy to grow.
The plant is designed to sit atop the decorative base, but it is not permanently fused to it. You can easily remove the plant for its weekly soaking and then place it back once it has dried.
It is normal for air plants to look slightly dehydrated after transit. Give the plant a thorough soak in water for about an hour upon arrival to help it rehydrate and perk up.
