Product Information
Tillandsia Ionantha Sumo White is a type of air plant that is known for its larger size compared to other Tillandsia ionantha varieties. It is a bright, attractive citrus green color and is thought to be similar to an "Albino" form of the species.
The leaves of the Sumo White variety are longer and appear to have less density of trichomes. The Sumo White is called a "Sumo" due to its larger size and rapid clumping ability
About Air Plants
Air plants, also known as Tillandsia, are fascinating epiphytes native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. Unlike traditional plants, they don't require soil for growth as they obtain nutrients and moisture through trichomes on their leaves, which absorb water from the air. This unique characteristic allows them to thrive by attaching themselves to trees, rocks, and other surfaces. Air plants come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, making them popular as decorative elements in homes and offices. Their low maintenance requirements and striking appearance make them an appealing choice for plant enthusiasts and beginners alike, adding a touch of natural beauty to any space.
