Description: Tillandsia Purple Gem is a stunning hybrid of parentage T. neglecta (red leaf form) X T. aeranthos (purple leaf form). This hybrid was created by Queensland hybridist Barry Genn in 1997. This plant has very dark purple / grey foliage, which is similar in shape to T. Aeranthos, but much more rigid in structure. It develops an arching inflorescence spike with rose pink bracts and dark purple flowers.

Position: Grow this plant in bright light conditions to increase the purple colouring of the foliage. Growing this species indoors is possible. However you will need to make sure it is next to a window with bright light, and good air flow. This species will thrive outside under bright, but indirect sunlight. Under a tree, verandah or deck, or in a shadehouse are all great locations for this plant. Ensure the location you choose has good air flow to help the plant dry out between watering. This species can withstand low temperatures, however it must be protected from frost. This species can be grown suspended or mounted on a solid substrate that does not retain water (timber, cork bark, etc). You can attach this plant to the surface using coated wire, fishing line, or an adhesive such as silicone, hot glue, or no-more nails. Do not cover the base of the plant with moss or any other substrate as it may rot.

Watering: As a general rule, a plant in a hot position will require watering every 2-3 days. In a dark, humid environment watering once per week can often be adequate. This can be achieved by misting or dunking the plant. If outdoors, a hose can be used. When dunking a plant, leave submerged in a bowl of water for 10-20 minutes before shaking off excess water. Air plants love to dry out completely between each watering and must never have water sitting at their base as this will cause the plant to rot.

 

Fertilisation: We recommend fertilising your Air Plants once a fortnight in the warmer months and once a month through winter. We sell Air Plant Fertiliser in our "Accessories" section. Simply give the plant one or two sprays after watering.

Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape depending on the season. Flowering plants are sent when available.

Soft and Comfortable Pillow
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Hometextile
This pillow has a soft feel with a nice balance of comfort and support. It fluffs up well after opening and maintains its shape throughout the night. The cover feels smooth, and the overall construction appears well made. A comfortable option for side and back sleepers looking for a plush sleeping experience.

Not for side sleepers
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Hometextile
These pillows are quite soft and flat, and offer very little support. I sleep on my side and can't use these pillows. I don't know why they're recommended for side sleepers.

A pillow made of extras soft lumps and clumps. Defective.
Size: Standard (Pack of 2), Style: Medium, Configuration: Hometextile
This pillow should not even be sold. It's simple a super soft pillow with lumps of clumps of softness. Part of my head was even touching the mattress through the clumps. I ended up throwing it on the floor at 2 am and my head and neck hurt from it. I have never had a pillow of lumps before. I hope I can return this thing.
