3 x Tillandsia Air Plants in Glass

This set pairs three Tillandsia air plants with glass, keeping the soil-free rosettes easy to remove for watering. The plants should be soaked outside the container, dried separately, and returned only once the leaves and crown are dry.

Tillandsia grow as compact bromeliads with roots used mainly for anchoring. Their leaves absorb moisture through fine trichomes and need brief watering, complete drying and good air movement around the base.

What the glass Tillandsia set includes

  • Set contents: Three mixed Tillandsia air plants with glass container.
  • Plant form: Compact bromeliad rosettes with exposed crowns, leaf bases and roots.
  • Handling: Removable for soaking and full drying.
  • Placement: For desks, shelves, sideboards and bright indoor spots.
  • Glass: The container suits dry, open display rather than wet planting.

Air plant growth inside an open glass display

Tillandsia are bromeliads with leaves arranged in rosettes, tufts or curled clusters, depending on the species included. The leaf surface carries fine trichomes that help the plant take up moisture from rain, mist or soaking. After watering, water needs to drain from the leaf bases so the crown does not stay wet inside the glass.

The glass container should stay open and dry between waterings, with enough air movement for the rosettes to dry after soaking. Glass can slow evaporation and intensify heat when placed in direct sun, so the plants should be watered outside the container and returned after the crown and leaf bases have dried fully.

Care routine for Tillandsia in glass

  • Light: Place in bright, indirect light. Keep the glass away from hot direct sun, especially at midday.
  • Watering: Remove the plants from the glass and soak in rainwater or low-mineral water for 15–30 minutes.
  • Drying: Shake out trapped water, then dry the plants upside down or on their side before returning them.
  • Glass handling: Keep the glass open and dry between waterings so water does not sit around the leaf bases.
  • Airflow: Place the arrangement where air can move around the rosettes after watering.
  • Temperature: Keep above 12 °C and away from cold window glass during cold nights.
  • Humidity: Normal indoor humidity is fine if the plants are soaked, shaken out and dried fully before they go back into the glass.
  • Feeding: Use a very weak bromeliad or orchid fertiliser occasionally in the soak water during active growth.
  • Cleaning: Keep the glass dry and free from standing water. Wipe away dust or mineral marks from the container when needed.
  • Offsets: After flowering, a mature rosette may form side shoots that can stay attached for a fuller plant.

Moisture problems in glass displays

  • Soft crown or base: The plant has likely stayed wet inside the glass. Extend drying time before returning it.
  • Brown scorched areas: Heat or direct sun on the glass may be too strong. Move the glass to bright filtered light.
  • Wrinkled or tightly curled leaves: The plant may need a longer soak or a shorter interval between waterings.
  • Grey residue on leaves: Hard tap water can leave mineral deposits. Switch to rainwater or low-mineral water.

Dry planting material around the crowns

Decorative material inside the glass should stay dry around the plant bases. If stones, sand or moss are used, keep the Tillandsia crown above the material so air can reach the lower leaves.

Plants, glass and safe placement

Keep the plants and glass container away from pets or children that may nibble the plants or knock over the glass.

Mixed Tillandsia background

Tillandsia L. is a genus in Bromeliaceae, native across tropical and subtropical America. The genus name honours Elias Tillandz, a Swedish-Finnish physician and botanist. This mixed set brings together compact Tillandsia forms with varied rosette growth and leaf texture.

Lift the plants out for watering and return them to the glass only after the crowns have dried.

Tough enough to Survive the big, bad CHARLIE!
I purchased this for my 80 pound yellow lab, Charlie. Charlie is a very powerful chewer. Toys typically last about 2.3 seconds in his grasp. Since Charlie's toy budget had ballooned to a point where I had to choose whether to fulfill his appetite for destruction, or pay the mortgage, I knew something had to change. This is how I came across this nylabone chew. It appeared tough enough that charlie may get at least an hour of play from this toy before it was destroyed. The price was reasonable enough that it fit within what was left of the depleted toy budget. So I bought it. Two quick days later, and the box arrived. I gave the package to Charlie, and told him it was another new toy for him to destroy. The smell of the nylabone vented through the cardboard, and he started to wag. He tore open the box and found the bone inside. At this point, he is elated. I removed the packaging and told him to go at it. That was weeks ago, and the dinosaur bone still has yet to be defeated. Sure, it is missing a few spines, and his tail is heavily chewed, but the bone is not yet destroyed. That isn't from a lack on trying on Charlie's part. He chews on the bone almost daily, and hasn't gotten tired of it yet! If you have a big dog who's toy budget is getting out of control, buy this bone! Small bits will come off here and there, so if your dog likes to eat what he destroys, keep an eye on him. However, all of the small bits that have come off Charlie's bone thus far are small enough that they should pass no problem. A great bone, and if they release similar bones in the future, Charlie will be a happy customer.

Dogs who chew will love this!
I have a puggle who chews all of the time, and she has been through a variety of Nylabone products, all of which she absolutely loved. I am a huge fan of anything Nylabone, and when I saw this one, I immediately had to get it for her because not only did it look like something she would love, but the design promotes good dental health. She has had it for a month now, and she is constantly chewing on it. Not only has it helped to keep her teeth clean, but it is much more durable than other Nylabone toys. She chews it every day, carries it around and drops it all over the place, and it has barely worn at all. I highly recommend this toy for dogs who love to chew! I do have to share one negative to this toy though.... if your dog likes you to "tug" with them for their toys, this one isn't for you. It hurts to grab and pull on it. Not much of a negative, but I want to give a fair review, so if you are looking for a strong tug toy, go with a smooth surfaced large Nylabone and save your hands some pain :)

Can't choose the dino... sad!
I have a beagle/jack russel mix. Needless to say, he is very high-energy and does best when given a job to do that involves chewing. He LOVES his Novabone and Nylabone- but tears thru the larger sizes in a single afternoon- so when I saw this I was very happy, because it is an unusual shape and durable! Amazon's iphone app let you scan in an item and find it cheaper on Amazon- so instead of the higher pet shop price, I scored a savings deal on Amazon! Nice! My big, fat, sad complaint is that you cannot CHOOSE the dinosaur! I knew this when ordering and the stegosaurus arrived- honestly I was hoping for the T-Rex or the Brontosaurus but I guess you get what you get. Still, a beagle gnawing on a T-Rex would be pretty funny...

Great Toy for Teething and Strong Chewer
Eli is now 10 months old, a labrador retriever that proves time and time again he needs toys that he can chew, but won't fall apart. He cannot have the stuffed animal toys (no, those he'll tear apart in SECONDS, never mind minutes). Aside from the Kong and the antler, this is the only toy he can chew on that won't fall apart. Even animal bones will split in minutes. Since he was a couple of months old, he has loved this Dinosaur Chew Toy. When he was teething, I'd put it in the freezer (sometimes put peanut butter on it to keep his interest). It was not only great for teething, but also massaged his gums. Now that he's out of teething phase, he still loves to chew on it. For the money, this is worth it. It's saved the furniture and the house from being chewed on, as he focused on this toy instead. Highly recommend, especially for the price. For any strong-chewing pup or dog in particular, this toy won't shatter, split or break apart.

Cracked Tooth
Update: While I originally loved this product and so did my dogs, I feel the need to update this review. The Dura Chew Nylabones are incredibly hard, which is what makes them last so long. However, one of our dogs did crack a tooth recently from chewing on a Dura Chew. Since then, we have been very hesitant to allow any of our dogs to chew on these as other reviews also state that dogs have cracked teeth. We have since thrown out all of the Dura Chews that we had. We are still using the regular Nylabone products (when they aren't made in China), but once those are gone we will not buy any additional products from Nylabone. We have been buying Whimzees for our dogs for the last two years or so and they are a healthy edible alternative. They do not last as long because they are edible, but I have the peace of mind in knowing that my dogs are safe with them. Another healthy alternative would be antlers, which we also give to our dogs and they usually last a long time. Original review: Another great Nylabone product. I love that dogs can chew on Nylabone products and they can't pull off pieces like products from other brands (Hartz for example). The Dura Chews are especially great for our hard chewers and they last forever! I love all of the dimples on their chews too, they're great for keeping our dogs' teeth clean. The vet is always impressed when they check their teeth.
