Tillandsia funkiana is a bold, spiky air plant known for its slender, needle-like green leaves that turn fiery red at the tips during bloom. Native to the highlands of Venezuela, this Tillandsia has a wild, sculptural form that stands out beautifully in modern and minimalist displays.

Unlike round rosette air plants, T. funkiana grows in a columnar, upright shape, making it ideal for vertical mounts, driftwood displays, terrariums, and creative plant styling. When mature, it produces a striking tubular red flower, adding intense colour and drama.

Care Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Light:

This plant thrives in bright indirect light, which means it needs a well-lit space without harsh direct sunlight. Ideal locations include east or north-facing windows, or spots near south or west-facing windows with filtered light through a sheer curtain to protect its foliage.

Water:

Mist 3–4 times a week or soak the plant in clean water for 20–30 minutes once a week. Shake off excess water and allow it to dry completely before placing it back. Good air circulation is essential.

Growing Media:

No soil needed. Display on:

  • Driftwood or bark
  • Decorative holders
  • Hanging frames
  • Terrariums (open or well-ventilated)

Feeding & Fertilization:

For these plants, use a bromeliad or air plant-specific liquid fertilizer (like 17-8-22) diluted to 1/4 strength, applied once every 2–4 weeks during the growing season. Mist or soak them in the diluted solution for about 20–30 minutes, then let them dry completely.

Avoid using compost or vermicompost, as these plants don’t grow in soil. Instead, focus on regular misting and occasional feeding to keep them healthy and vibrant.
