Tillandsia Stricta hard leaf is a small to medium sized, easy to grow air plant. It's leaves are firm and evergreen. Tillandsia Stricta hard leaf has irregular leaf growth, spiraling upwards along the center of the plant. It's optimal temperature is 75 +/- 10, with tolerance for higher temperatures and humidity. Tillandsia Stricta hard leaf blooms in spring to early summer with one vibrant flower spike with pink inflorescences and bluish-purple flowers and will clump with time.

Stages of Tillandsia Stricta Hard Leaf


From Green to Blush T. Stricta Hard Leaf is a robust medium sized evergreen variety with a firm dense rosette of smooth-edged straight leaves. T. Stricta Hard Leaf displays colors of green to dark green with small, less prominent trichomes. When transitioning into bloom the leaves will change from green to a soft pink color focusing around the bloom. The leaves are a great indicator for the plants need for water when they show signs of curling. Care must be taken to ensure water does not pool in its bulbous base, as this will cause rot. Good air flow will assist with drying and turning the plant upside down after watering will prevent water from pooling.	Bud Formation & Blooms T. Stricta Hard Leaf blooms in spring to early summer. They have one of the brightest blooms in the genus with one vibrant flower spike that has apink inflorescence and bluish-purple flowers. Their flowers can be enjoyed for several days and will then begin to dry up over the next couple of weeks until the entire inflorescence has completely dried out. At this point you can trim the inflorescence for aesthetic purposes or leave it as is. Fertilizing your Tillandsia with The Drunken Gnome's Bromeliad & Air Plant Food will help encourage budding and brighter blooms.	Reproduction & Propagation T. Stricta have a life cycle of growing to maturity and then blooming. Before, during, or after blooming T. Stricta will start producing new baby plants called offsets, which are also known as pups. Stricta is a quick grower that produces lots of pups that clump together to form a ball. On average it will produce between 1 - 4+ pups. The pups will obtain nutrients from the mother plant as she ends her lifecycle. They can be separated once the pups grow to 1/3 or half the size of the mother plant. A gentle tug and twist will not hurt the plants as you remove the pups.	Receiving Your Airplant No matter what stage your T. Stricta(s) are in at the time of arrival, they will continue to grow and change over time. Once you receive your new air plant(s), it's important to give them a good soaking and acclimate them to their new environment. Take care of your air plants and provide for them by nourishing them with adequate sunlight, airflow, water and nutrients and they will reward you for years to come!

Tillandsia General Information

Tillandsia, commonly known as Air Plants, are an adaptive and hardy plant species which require no soil and absorb all of their water and nutrients through their leaves.

Enthusiasts of all kinds love to attach air plants to all types of objects such as driftwood, hanging in an air plant holder, or placed in a glass orb terrarium. Indoor grown Tillandsias generally need to be watered about 1-3 times a week by spraying the plant and kept in indirect sunlight. Not only are they fun and easy to keep, air plants are also a great choice of air purifying plants. Whether they are kept in your home, garden, office, kitchen windowsill, terrarium, vivarium or enchanted fairy garden, these adorable little plants will naturally clean and filter the air around you while adding a little bit of nature to your indoor space.

Life Cycle

Tillandsia have a life cycle of one plant growing to maturity and blooming. Before, during or after blooming (depending on the species) your plant will start producing offsets (pups). Most plants will produce between 1 - 4+ pups. The pups will obtain nutrients from the mother plant as she ends her lifecycle. They can be separated once the pups grow to 1/3 or half the size of the mother plant.


Roots Tillandsia roots have one task, strictly for anchoring to any tree, rock surface, structure or host plant (even one another). The roots take in no nourishment from the host nor do they supply the Tillandsia with any nutrients. Tillandsia roots are used to secure a place for growth and position the plant to receive optimal light and water. Roots are not an integral part of an air plants life or health and the absence of roots is not a sign of poor health. Do not plant their roots in soil as it will cause the air plant to rot. For aesthetic purposes roots, may be removed from just below the base of the air plant using scissors.	Leaves Tillandsia rely solely on their leaves to absorb rain, draw in moisture and nutrients from the air and allow for photosynthesis to produce food for the plant. Leaf colors and textures vary from few to many, wide to thin, silvery, white, lime green, dark green to almost black. Leaves can be ridged, stiff, brittle, soft, flexible, succulent, smooth and curly. Some have microscopic, less pronounced trichomes (Mesic) while others have fuzzy, white, enlarged highly visible trichomes (Xeric). Leaves surrounding an inflorescence may “blush” or turn bright red, pink, orange, peach or yellow as blooming season arrives. In some Tillandsia (T. Brachycaulos, T. Fuego, T. Victoriana) the majority of the plant turns intense red/pink. The blush usually subsidies back to green after flowering.	Flower When it comes time to flower, from the center of the plant develops the inflorescence, the stem or spike reproductive portion of the tillandsia, from which the flowers emerge from the bract. Later if successfully pollinated a green seed pod will form from the base of the flower. The duration of the blooms varies among plants. Typically, the stem or inflorescence emerges with a colorful bract. Then the flowers bloom from the bract. The flowers expire, then some time after the inflorescence spike dries and browns and expires, as well. At this time if pollination has not occurred or the formation of a seed pod is not desired, the entire spike may be removed from between the leaves with a clean set of scissors.	Pups After flowering, Tillandsia enter the next phase of life: producing seeds, pupping or both. Depending on variety, Tillandsia can form pups at the base of the plant, from the inflorescence or along the stem. After some time of facilitating seed formation and nourishing the process of pup development and growth, the parent plant will wither giving way to those pups to start the cycle again. With good care, the parent plants health does not typically decline until pups are mature enough for survival on their own. Some varieties of Tillandsia will form a clump with passing time of this continued cycle. They can remain as a clump or the pups may be separated individually once they become 1/3 or better of the mature size.

Tillandsia Quick Tips

Air plants love sunlight and will do best positioned near a window if indoors.
Air plants grow great outdoors as long as temperatures don't drop below 55°F.
When soaking your air plants, soak upside down and keep the bottom above water if possible.
Gently shake out your air plant to remove excess water and place upside down to fully dry.
Ensure your air plant has good air circulation in the location you decide to keep them.


Displaying your Tillandsia One of the advantages of having air plants is their versatility. You can display your air plants on cork bark, in glass terrariums, alongside crystals, in table top pots, shell containers, suspended planters, wall mounts, wood mounts and so much more. Use fishing line, wire, glue, twine or yarn to affix your plants. Use pebbles, rocks, seashells or moss as decorative substrates. Some species of air plants will branch their pups, creating their own display. It is important to make sure your air plants can receive plenty of good air circulation and sunlight. With how versatile air plants are you can definitely let your creativity run wild! The design possibilities are infinite!	Watering & Fertilization To promote growth, color and blooms, we recommend fertilizing your Air Plants with our ready-to-use Air Plant Food 1-2 times per week during regular watering. As a general rule, a plant in a hot position will require watering every 2-3 days. In a darker, more humid environment, watering once per week can often be adequate. This can be achieved by misting or soaking the plant. If outdoors, a hose can be used. When soaking a plant, leave submerged in a bowl of water for 10-20 minutes before shaking off excess water (do not submerge flowers). Air plants need to dry out completely between each watering and must never have water sitting at their base as this will cause the plant to rot.	Gift Options for All Occasions Whether you are crafting a personalized gift or providing the medium for someone else to get creative with, air plants are an excellent gift choice for so many different occasions! Air plant gifts are ideal for Holidays, birthdays, housewarmings. Teachers, employees, co-workers and college students love them too! They are easy to care for and make a great gift for someone who loves plants but doesn't have the best green thumb!

Built Tough Enough to Handle Serious Chewers

Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion

This toy is noticeably harder and denser than standard dog chew toys, which is the whole point. My dog went after it immediately and the nylon held up through serious chewing sessions without gouging, cracking, or pieces breaking off. For a dog that destroys softer toys in minutes, this actually lasts. Based on a few weeks of use I would expect it to hold up for a month or longer depending on the dog, which is significantly better than most toys in this price range. The peanut butter groove is the engagement feature that makes a difference. Stuffing it with peanut butter or other spreadable treats keeps a dog interested longer than just chewing on it plain. The scorpion shape (though it resembles a lobster to some eyes) gives multiple parts to chew on, so the dog can rotate between the legs and tail when one section gets boring. That variety helps extend how long the toy stays interesting. Cleanup is straightforward since it is dishwasher safe, which matters after using peanut butter or other treats in the groove. The teeth cleaning claim is harder to verify in short-term use, but as a durable boredom relief toy for aggressive chewers this performs solidly. It is the kind of toy that actually justifies the price because it does not end up in the trash after a week.

Crawfish that cleans her teeth and tastes like bacon, enough said.

Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion, Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion

This chew toy is for a medium to large-sized dog and smells like bacon, and who doesn't love bacon? The toy has a heavy-duty safe for dogs nylon core, making it virtually indestructible for aggressive, all-day chewers like my dog. I am from Louisiana, and I love all things crawfish. I thought if she didn't like it, then I could use it to decorate for crawfish parties, but she loves this toy. There is a groove for treats like peanut butter or cheese, whatever your dog is into. My dog likes carrying it around, but I don't think she understands to chew on it yet. However, she must love the bacon taste in her mouth because she hardly takes it out. I wanted her to chew on it to help clean her teeth; maybe in time, she will start. This toy is dishwasher safe after rinsing it off with soapy warm water. Just place it on the top rack and turn it on. The crawfish is smooth and non-porous, so there are no spots for bacteria to hide. I really like this crawfish, and I hope that in time my little weirdo will understand that it is meant to be chewed, not sucked on. I highly recommend this for larger dogs that love to chew, and I am happy with this order.

Our dogs wouldn’t touch this chew toy

Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion, Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion

I ordered this Bacon Flavored Nylon Chew Toy for my boxer mix dog. She sniffed it and wouldn’t have anything to do with it. We waited a day and still no luck. We figured that we would give it to our pit bull because she can annihilate a chew toy. Nope, she wouldn’t touch it. The thing looks like a big chunk of plastic with a very faint smell of bacon. Based on our experience with this product I cannot recommend it.

Surprisingly Tough Chew Toy for Aggressive Chewers

Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion, Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion

This chew toy is made from a very hard nylon style material and feels substantially tougher than the average dog toy. It definitely seems geared toward aggressive chewers and larger dogs that destroy softer toys quickly. Our pup immediately liked it, especially with the peanut butter groove feature, which helped keep them interested longer. The toy feels almost indestructible during normal chewing sessions and has held up very well so far with no major gouges, cracks, or chunks coming off. Based on first impressions, I would expect this to last at least a month or more for many dogs, which is far better than a lot of chew toys in this price range. Another nice bonus is that it is dishwasher safe, making cleanup easy after using peanut butter or other treats in the groove. As for the teeth cleaning claim, I honestly cannot comment much on that yet. I have not personally noticed any obvious difference in our dog’s teeth or dental condition from using it. Still, as a durable boredom relief chew toy for aggressive chewers, it has been a solid performer so far and seems like a good value.

My dog approves

Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion, Size: Medium & Large, Color: Red Scorpion

My dog absolutely loves these flavored chew bones! She’s a very aggressive chewer, and this toy has held up really well to her constant chewing. It keeps her entertained for a long time and seems to be one of her favorite toys. I also love the unique scorpion shape. Living in the desert, we see scorpions pretty often, so I thought it was a funny and fitting design. While I don’t expect it to turn her into a scorpion hunter, it definitely adds a fun touch! The flavor keeps her interested, and the durable material makes it a great option for heavy chewers. Overall, a great toy that has been a huge hit with my pup. Will definitely be purchasing more!
