Tillandsia capitata 'Mauve Ball' is a striking air plant variety known for its compact, round shape and vibrant coloration. It features thick, fleshy leaves that are typically green, with a beautiful mauve or pink tint, especially when exposed to bright light. The leaves form a dense rosette, creating a ball-like appearance
Lighting: Bright Indirect Light / Medium Light
Watering: Airplants can either be misted or soaked to be watered. To water via misting, heavily mist your plant 2-3 times per week. To water via soaking, fully submerge your airplant in water for 10-20 minutes every 7-10 days. If your plant is in very bright light, it will dry out more quickly. If your air plant is thirsty, the ends of its leaves may crisp. If this happens, adjust your watering schedule to be slightly more often.
Growth: New growth will emerge from the center of the plant; moderate grower
Special Notes: After watering, shake the plant and let it dry upside down. If excess water sits in the crown of the plant, it can lead to rot.
