Ionantha Rubra is the perfect glass terrarium plant. If you have seen an already set up air plant vase, there is a good chance you have also seen a Rubra in there. They have the ideal shape for terrariums, wood displays, air plant frames, and general mounting.
Rubras turn a beautiful red/pink colour with a purple flower when in bloom.
Plant Size
2- 5 inches, air plant stand not included.
Light
Bright indirect light for most of the day.
Water
Mist plant daily and or submerge the plant in water every 2-3 weeks.
Plant Specific Care
The leaves of the air plant are covered with a layer of special water-absorbing cells. They can absorb moisture and nutrients from air or dust. Therefore, most species do not need soil and can be hung directly in the air as decoration on walls, furniture, cork, and stones. Air plants thrive in a well-ventilated environment with plenty of fresh air. However, avoid direct hot air.
Pet-Friendly Plant
Yes.
