Ken, so cool! Do you have to protect them for winter where you are?

I consider my air plants among my house plants. Literally!

The older section that's dying off now, as expected, was the whole plant when I got it. It's making a lot of roots. It's been there for about 4 yrs. I dribble water over it when I'm watering the soil for the tree & other plants about every 2-3 days while outside. While inside for winter, I use a squirt bottle to mist the air plant about as often, 2-3x week.

There's another kind on the trunk of this Ti plant (Cordyline fruticosa.) My MIL found it on the ground in FL & brought it home & gave it to me earlier this year.

Don't have a recent pic of one other one. Will add it soon.

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
