T. Hybrid No. 1 Air Plants, Approximately 4-6"

Tillandsia Hybrid 1, also known as T. Houston "cotton candy", is a cross between a Stricta and Recurvifolia. T. Hybrid 1 is a medium sized air plant. It's leaves are a silvery light green color that are firm and pointed. When in bloom, T. Hybrid 1 will display a cotton candy pink inflorescence and bright white flowers. It's optimal temperature is 75 +/- 10, with tolerance for higher temperatures and humidity. They appreciate bright stippled sunny areas of lighting.


From Green to Blush

T. Hybrid 1 is a medium sized air plant with a firm dense rosette of smooth-edged straight leaves. They display a silvery light green color with prominent trichomes covering the entire length of the leaves. When transitioning into blush, their leaves will begin to change from green to a soft pink color focusing near the bloom.

The leaves are a great indicator for the plants need for water. When underwatered, they may show signs of leaf curling, browning and/or may be dry to the touch. Care must be taken to ensure water does not pool in its 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. Hybrid No. 1 blooms from early spring through late summer. They have a long lasting bloom with shades of rose and pink followed by an impressive bloom displaying a large pink colored inflorescence and many bright white 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. Hybrid No. 1 have a life cycle of growing to maturity and then blooming. Before, during or after blooming the T. Hybrid No. 1 will start producing new baby plants called offsets, which are also known as pups. On average it will produce between 1 - 4+ pups.

The pups will obtain nutrients from the mother plant as she ends her lifecycle. If left to colonize, they will continue to grow to maturity, bloom and reproduce, forming a clump.

They can also be separated into individual plants 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. Hybrid No. 1 is in at the time of arrival, it 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!

Please Note* Air plant size, color and growth stage may vary slightly according to availability.

Kills germs without all the harshness
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I hate that every time I buy this sanitizer the price goes up, but I love that it is alcohol-free, fragrance free, and doesn't leave a sticky feeling on my hands after using it. My whole family has been using it since my almost 6 year old was a baby. We use it on a daily basis. It doesn't dry or irritate skin. I've even used it around her mouth/chin area when we weren't around water with no resulting irritation, and she has sensitive skin prone to irritation. And I don't feel nervous that the kids are going to put their hands in their mouths or do something stupid like drink it when I send it to school in my daughter's back pack, because the ingredients are so mild. This is my favorite sanitizer on the market!

I'm really disappointed ☹️
Scent: Mandarin, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I was excited to get this thinking it would be safe, foaming, smell good and be cleaning for my hands. Surprisingly it did not foam at all. I'm really disappointed. It's just liquid pouring out. I don't understand why. I even shook it up. 💁🏼‍♀️ Why would it be listed as foaming? Maybe I got a bad batch? Wonder if others have great success? Idk. 😔

Helped user with very dry skin
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
No babies here, but I figured that if it was safe for babies it would be ok for me-and it was cheap too. Surprisingly, while using this product, this Winter has been the best for my "seasonal, bleeding skin cracks" to my finger tips. I'm talking about the deep cracks that typically start at a fingernail corner and can take forever to heal. Typically I use 3-in-one antibiotic ointment, covered with bandaids, covered with protective first aid tape on at least one finger all Winter, and often need to resort to Superglue to keep some cracks closed-all with mixed results. A crack will heal over and crack open again whemn I stop protecting it with bandaids. This year I have had hardly any skin cracks on my hands. I I've used many different types of waterless hand cleaners, foaming soaps, and several different hand wash and hand sanitizers, (some alcohol based, others not) before this one, all in an effort to avoid using soap and water as much as possible for cleaning-which dries my skin out even more. I still occasionally use the the grit-type of citrus waterless hand cleaners for automotive grime-nothing else works for some of that. As far as I can tell, this particular hand sanitizer is the only thing that I've changed this Winter in terms of hand care. (I seldom use much in the way of moisturizer or "invisible glove" type products.) For reference, I have ALWAYS had extremely dry skin, and in addition to handling a lot of paper products over the years (formerly in the printing business) I now mainly work on a lot of medium and small repair projects, some where the need to wash my hands with strong cleaners and solvents to get various lubricants, paints, adhesives, rust and other residue off is a near-daily occurrence.
