I live in a high desert and it seems to make a huge difference. I use these cute holders from a shop called succapunch. They seem to do great with the indirect light that was mentioned. Great insight!

I found that i overwatered my airplamts. They all died of mushy and brown crowns. I cut back on the water, a short 20 to 30 second dunk every 2 weeks and they are doing so well. I separated 3 pups from the motherplant and all are thriving

I live in Florida where it is warm and great for these air plants.

I really enjoy my airplants, I have many. Most are about 3 yrs old. Just purchased 3 X-lg giants.they are amazing.

I couldn’t either until I stopped soaking them and just sprayed them. I haven’t lost another one again.
