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.

Works and feels Great
Sun protection factor: 70 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I just got back from The beautiful island of St Thomas USVI and used this product all throughout my vacation. I’m really picky about sunscreen formula and having dark combination skin, it’s pretty important that I find one I can work with. This was great! It was hydrating but didn’t feel too oily, the smell was subtle and not overwhelming, and I didn’t burn all week especially when I was on a different beach in different areas of the island it worked beautiful for me

Works well, smells great, goes on easily
Sun protection factor: 15 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Count (Pack of 2)
It smells good. It goes on easily with the spray bottle. It keeps me from burning while out biking. It's a good price. Overall, a very nice product that does what it should. We carry it in our bike packs and in the car when we know we'll be out in the sun all day. Doesn't feel heavy when sprayed on so it smooths over your skin very well. Keeps me from burning.

My favorite sunscreen!
Sun protection factor: 70 Sun Protection Factor (SPF), Size: 6 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I have been using Hawaiian Tropic sunscreen for years and absolutely love the smell. I wanted to try a spray version as I hate the feeling of oily hands after applying sunscreen. This version sprays on super evenly and has that same beachy smell as the lotion! It stays on for hours and doesn’t leave a sticky residue. My go to sunscreen! With such high SPF as well, this sunscreen truly cannot be best for the value.
