Tillandsias are bromeliads. They absorb water and nutrients thru the leaves not roots, and require no planting medium.
Each plant only flowers once. After blooming the plants reproduce 1-8 offspring from the side of the mother.
They can tolerate a large range of temperatures and withstand long periods without water.
Hang them anywhere away from direct sun light.
