Airplant is the common name for the genus Tillandsia, a member of the Bromeliad family. All Tillandsia can grow without soil as they take all of their water and nutritional requirements through little scales on their leaves, known as trichomes. They are easy to care for just needing air, light and water. They just need a light spray of water daily.
