Answer

Air plants, also known as Tillandsia, are unique because they don't need soil to grow. They absorb nutrients and water through their leaves instead of roots. To grow properly, they require fresh air circulation, bright but indirect sunlight, and regular watering by misting or soaking them in water every 2-4 weeks. You can hang them or place them on rocks or decorative pieces to display them beautifully in your home or garden. Remember to avoid overwatering, as it can cause root rot and harm their growth. Proper care will ensure your air plants thrive in their special environment.
