Tillandsia disticha var. minor
A compact variety of Tillandsia disticha from the cloud forests of South America, forming a dense rosette of very fine, linear-filiform leaves that arch and recurve gracefully. It produces a distichous inflorescence with reddish bracts — a true air plant requiring no substrate to thrive.
- Light: Bright indirect to filtered direct light; tolerates morning sun but avoid harsh midday exposure, which can desiccate the fine leaves.
- Temperature: 55–80°F (13–27°C); a cool to intermediate grower adaptable to a wide range of conditions with good air movement.
- Humidity: 50–80%; benefits from regular misting or soaking, especially in drier environments.
- Watering: Mist 2–3 times per week or soak for 20–30 minutes weekly; always allow to dry fully before the next watering to prevent rot at the base.
Additional Notes
Tillandsia disticha var. minor is shipped without substrate and can be mounted on cork, driftwood, or displayed freely. Its fine, arching foliage and compact form make it an elegant addition to any air plant or bromeliad collection.
