Tillandsia tectorum Peru is a special form of tectorum, prized for its larger size and striking vertical growth habit. Its elongated, upright structure sets it apart from more compact tectorum varieties, adding height, texture, and visual interest to any air plant collection.
Covered in dense, silvery trichomes, it has a soft, frosted appearance that enhances its sculptural form. Easy to care for and highly decorative, this variety is a beautiful way to introduce scale and variety into terrariums, driftwood displays, or curated air plant arrangements.

Quick Care Guide
Air plants like consistent, bright, indirect light. Avoid full summer sun.
Soak your air plants in water for about 30 minutes once a week for full hydration.
Make sure your plants dry completely before placing them back in a display or globe.
Never plant your air plants in soil. This will induce rot.
Air plants prefer temperatures between 50–90°F. If you're comfortable, they're comfortable.
