Tillandsia Matudae is rare in commercial cultivation. This Mexican air plant has a silvery grey-green colour making it easy to confuse with much more common Tillandsia Velickiana. The difference really becomes apparent when the plant flowers. Tillandsia Matudae can be somewhat variable, producing a similarly pendulous inflorescence to that of Velickiana but ranging in colour from orange-red to yellow-green when compared to the soft pink of Velickiana. The flowers themselves are white and extend beyond the floral bract.
All of the plants will be shipped bare root.
It wants lots of light but we must go very carefully with direct sunlight especially in summer, it is best to partial shade.
No soil is needed. Sand, sea glass, rocks, pebbles & bark chips can be used instead of soil.

When you purchase online, your plants have to go through lots of stress while traveling so they may need a few days to adjust to their new environment and thrive. If your plant does not perk back up after a few days of care, let us know and we will send replacements free of charge. Remember that we always try our best to accommodate you.
It’s advised that you should repot the plant as soon as you get it. After repotting, your new houseplant will most likely struggle with transplant shock. It may appear droopy, faded, or have a slower growth rate than usual during this time. This is completely normal, and it’s also normal for transplant shock to hit especially hard after repotting a brand-new houseplant. To make sure your plant has plenty of time to adjust to its new surroundings, wait a day after potting and water your plant. Make sure any excess water drains completely from the pot afterward. Monitor your soil’s moisture levels daily to start creating a watering routine. To help perk up your new houseplant, we recommend adding a little water-soluble fertilizer, compost, or sugar water to your soil to boost its nutrients and help it grow.
