1 gallon bag (approx. 12 ounces) of Tillandsia usneoides. Extremely healthy, greenhouse-grown Spanish Moss. Greenhouse-grown Spanish Moss generally does better in captivity when compared to wild-collected plants. It is generally more healthy with less dead material mixed in and you don't have to worry about hitchhiking creepy crawlies!Care: Because of its small size and fine texture, T. usneoides needs to be watered more often than other Tillandsia, usually 1-3x's a week depending on weather and season. Spritz with a very weak fertilizer solution 1x/month. Prefers temps from the mid 50's at night up the 90's during the day with high humidity and a breezy environment. Can take full sun but prefers mottled sunlight- bright indirect light.
