Rare & Air

We are committed to only providing nursery grown plants so that none are removed from the wild.  Currently some of our airplants are imported but we are constantly increasing our range of home propagated Tillandsias and are also growing from seed.  This is a slow process but will allow us to supply a range of air plants at good value prices.  All our plants are acclimatised to South African conditions before sale and are healthy, quality plants.

Tillandsias are native to Central and South America and the south eastern USA.  They occur in rain and cloud forests, inland and coastal deserts and swamps and at elevations from sea level to 2750m.  This means that there is an air plant to suit most situations and places. One of the great features of tillandsias is that they can be moved around.  If you want to create a feature in your home you can move your air plant for a couple of months and it will recover when moved back to correct light.

Tillandsias and air plants can suit all people and places- we are also passionate about finding creative ways to show them off in our gift range.

You can visit our nursery in Munster KZN, South Africa by appointment.  We display and sell our range of Tillandsia and rare and unusual plants at plant fairs and shows throughout the year.  We are also always happy to get in touch by email or phone to discuss your airplant requirements.  We can advise on how to grow them or which plants will suit your garden or home best.  As we deliver door to door we can also arrange a special gift for friends and family.
