Air plants can be used in a variety of ways, such as creating hanging displays, terrariums, or even incorporating them into floral arrangements for a modern and unique touch. Their versatility and ability to thrive in different environments make them a popular choice for home decor and DIY projects.

They require misting with water 2-3 times a week and soaking for 20-30 minutes every 2-3 weeks. It is important to place them in a location with bright, indirect sunlight to ensure they thrive. Additionally, avoid using tap water as it may contain harmful chemicals – opt for filtered or rainwater instead.

When keeping airplants with reptiles, it is important to ensure that the enclosure provides adequate ventilation to prevent mold growth. Additionally, be mindful of the temperature and humidity levels in the enclosure to create a suitable environment for both the plants and reptiles.
