*Air plant only, cholla pot sold separately

The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador is a xerophytic low-maintenance plant that needs more direct light and less water than any other Tillandsia. Native to the arid Andes in Peru and Ecuador, this Bromeliaceae family member has its leaves adapted for extreme weather conditions. Thus, the dense fuzzy white trichomes reflect the ultra-violet rays in native conditions. This plant grows anywhere between 6 to 8 inches but can be shorter or taller depending on the growing needs. The air plant is lightweight due to its snowball appearance. This winter-dormant Tectorum Ecuador grows slowly at a snail’s pace with the potential to bloom anytime during the year.

Growth Rate
The Tectorum Ecuador air plant is hugely slow-growing.

Flowering
The light pink Tillandsia flower grows out of reddish bracts on a mature Tectorum air plant.

Watering and Feeding
Compared to all other Tillandsias, the Tillandsia tectorum ecuador demands less watering due to the presence of so many trichomes. Soaking in water is a big no. Misting once every third week is ideal. This plant should be completely dry within an hour of misting. In drier climates, the frequency of misting may be increased, and in a humid climate, it may be decreased.

Soil
No soil is required for the plant. An essential Tillandsia Tectorum care tip is surrounding your air plant with rocks, sand, sea glass, or shells but not moss or soil.

Hardiness
The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador air plant grows well in hardiness zones of 10 and above. It is crucial to note that these air plants cannot tolerate temperatures less than 30° to 40°F (-1.1° to 4.4°C).

Light
Another important Tectorum Ecuador air plant care tip is that the plant grows well in direct sunlight.

Propagation
Offsets at the base of the air plant necklace are the best way for propagation.

The beautiful snowballs of drought-resistant Tectorum Ecuador are exceptionally popular. With their marked distinct identify, your air plant collection will go a notch higher with these around.

This package had more than the pkg that was supposed to have 4000, but they are coming up slowly. It is dry here, I have been watering , just enough to get the ground wet and they are scattered, but some are coming up. I also watered the space supposedly where i spread seeds from the supposedly 4000 seeds pkg. They are not coming up as much!

3 days and already sprouting
Style: Zinnia Dahlia, Style: Zinnia Dahlia
I planted these seeds three days ago. They’ve had pure sun these last three days with water that I’ve given them and they’re already starting to sprout. I could not recommend these more if I tried.

Didn’t get a review on the garlic powder
Style: Zinnia Dahlia
The seeds were okay but the garlic powder that I ordered was smaller than usual is a case of bait and switch

Beautiful and vibrant blooms
Style: Zinnia Dahlia, Style: Zinnia Dahlia
This is the first time we planted Zinnias in our garden. Seemed so easy and worry free. It took 2.5 months from the time we planted the seeds to seeing the first blooms. It's now been about 3 months and the plants are in full bloom. The flowers came out in many vibrant colors! The seed packets contained a nice surprise since you don't know exactly what colors the flowers will be. Looks like it will continue blooming for a few more months with a little caring, like constant watering and deadheading. We definitely plan to capture the seeds so we can enjoy the flowers again.
