DESCRIPTION: This plant, which is named after Tillandsia Researchers Renate and Klaus Ehlers, is one of our all time favorites here at Air Plant Hub. As you can see in the photo, these can get to be a massive size. Ehlersiana is a very hardy plant and easy to grow. When watering Ehlersiana, do not soak it, instead spray it with water or give it quick dunks in water until full saturated. This will help to ensure that no water gets trapped in the base of the plant. These can be found naturally in Mexico, where they grow in semi-arid areas of Chiapas. Ehlersiana like good amounts of indirect light and good air flow.
SIZE: Approx 5"+ as pictured.
