Tillandsias belong to the Bromeliaceae family and are native to Central and South America, the southern United States, and the Caribbean. These remarkable plants absorb water and nutrients through their leaves rather than roots, making soil completely unnecessary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e The Longspine Murex shell features a pale cream to ivory surface adorned with long, elegant spines, giving it an architectural, sculptural quality. The Tillandsia nestled inside will vary by season and availability, typically showcasing rosette or grass-like foliage in silvery green or deep green tones. Together, the pairing creates a striking coastal display that works beautifully on shelves, windowsills, or as a centerpiece.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/House_8db6c6e9-d5bb-466c-95af-bdbcbe9ff370_480x480.png?v=1600400127\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e This set makes a charming gift and a versatile home accent, fitting naturally into coastal, bohemian, or minimalist interiors. It is best placed out of reach of young children due to the shell's pointed spines. Keep it away from curious cats and dogs, as some Tillandsia varieties may cause mild stomach upset if chewed. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Sun_65296975-26d8-49a3-83b6-b7b0ed15ae73_480x480.png?v=1600397323\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e Tillandsias thrive in bright, indirect light. Place the shell display near a sunny window that receives several hours of filtered light daily. Avoid intense direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves and dry the plant out too quickly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Water_d9b740b9-bfce-41c4-ae3e-16bf9678c77f_480x480.png?v=1600397177\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e Remove the air plant from the shell and mist it thoroughly two to three times per week, or soak it in room-temperature water for 20 to 30 minutes once a week. After soaking, gently shake off excess water and allow it to dry upside down for an hour before returning it to the shell. Good air circulation is essential to prevent rot at the base.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Soil_40a149eb-9d43-4bf0-ac38-159c702c72f2_480x480.png?v=1600397158\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e No soil is needed at any stage of this plant's life. The Tillandsia simply rests inside the shell, supported by its natural form. Ensure the shell is placed on a stable, flat surface so the plant stays properly positioned and air can circulate freely around the base.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cimg data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2198\/4603\/files\/Temperature_f0d54887-2130-48b9-9020-c9b8cdec1f12_480x480.png?v=1600399389\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"\"\u003e Tillandsias prefer temperatures between 50°F and 90°F (10°C and 32°C) and do well in average indoor humidity. They appreciate good airflow, so avoid placing them in enclosed terrariums without ventilation.
