Air Plant Fuego Ball
Couldn't load pickup availability
5" Airplant Ball full of gorgeous pink edges, our ionantha 'Fuego' Tillandsia is a stunning addition to any plant collectors assortment and easy to maintain. Water it by soaking it or letting it get rained on and then let it dry out, we water about once a week and good indirect light is all it needs. One big reason to bring air plants into your home is that they can purify the air you breathe!
As this airplant matures and gets enough light it will start to get hints of red at the edges (as depicted in the final image with it's blooms).

I'm new with Air plants & this one is beautiful how does it work when watered.
Love the plant. There was some stuff on the one part that looked dead so I trimmed it some. Not sure if it is just a single plant of the group.
I love my new air plant. I haven't grown 1 before so this should be fun!!!!
Thankyou!!
Still learning with this one moved to new spot starting to get some new growth finally it wasn't looking to good where it was not getting enough light.
Where received it it was vibrant and fall and within a week had bloomed. Since then it is just fading away. It is smaller and thinner. It gets bright light and I missed it a couple times a week. Am I doing something wrong?
Plants arrived perfectly packed, healthy, beautiful!! I’m very pleased. Soon ordering more.
Thank you
