Spring

When the lowest temperature in spring stabilizes above 15°C, the Tillandsia can be repotted and divided. Tillandsia should be cultivated in a place with light in the morning and evening or in semi-light. The pot soil needs to be kept moist, but not too wet. Spray the leaves and surrounding areas frequently to increase air humidity. Spring is the peak growth season for Tillandsia, so attention should be paid to the supply of fertilizers.
