Succulents Box Tillandsia Caput Medusae

Correct. Tillandsia Caput Medusae is an epiphyte, meaning it absorbs moisture and nutrients through its leaves rather than its roots. You can display it in a terrarium, mount it on wood, or simply place it in a decorative bowl without any potting medium.

The best method is to soak the plant in a bowl of room-temperature water for about 20 to 30 minutes once a week. Afterward, gently shake off excess water and place it upside down to dry completely before returning it to its display, as trapped water can cause the base to rot.

This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct, harsh sunlight, which can burn the leaves, but ensure it is near a window where it can receive plenty of ambient brightness throughout the day.

The 6-month green thumb coverage is designed to support you as you learn to care for your new plant. If your Tillandsia struggles or fails to thrive within the first six months of ownership, you can contact the Succulents Box team for guidance or assistance.

The Tillandsia Caput Medusae typically reaches a mature height of 4 to 5 inches. You will receive a healthy, established specimen that is ready to be displayed immediately upon arrival.
