*Air plant only, cholla pot sold separately

The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador is a xerophytic low-maintenance plant that needs more direct light and less water than any other Tillandsia. Native to the arid Andes in Peru and Ecuador, this Bromeliaceae family member has its leaves adapted for extreme weather conditions. Thus, the dense fuzzy white trichomes reflect the ultra-violet rays in native conditions. This plant grows anywhere between 6 to 8 inches but can be shorter or taller depending on the growing needs. The air plant is lightweight due to its snowball appearance. This winter-dormant Tectorum Ecuador grows slowly at a snail’s pace with the potential to bloom anytime during the year.

Growth Rate
The Tectorum Ecuador air plant is hugely slow-growing.

Flowering
The light pink Tillandsia flower grows out of reddish bracts on a mature Tectorum air plant.

Watering and Feeding
Compared to all other Tillandsias, the Tillandsia tectorum ecuador demands less watering due to the presence of so many trichomes. Soaking in water is a big no. Misting once every third week is ideal. This plant should be completely dry within an hour of misting. In drier climates, the frequency of misting may be increased, and in a humid climate, it may be decreased.

Soil
No soil is required for the plant. An essential Tillandsia Tectorum care tip is surrounding your air plant with rocks, sand, sea glass, or shells but not moss or soil.

Hardiness
The Tillandsia tectorum ecuador air plant grows well in hardiness zones of 10 and above. It is crucial to note that these air plants cannot tolerate temperatures less than 30° to 40°F (-1.1° to 4.4°C).

Light
Another important Tectorum Ecuador air plant care tip is that the plant grows well in direct sunlight.

Propagation
Offsets at the base of the air plant necklace are the best way for propagation.

The beautiful snowballs of drought-resistant Tectorum Ecuador are exceptionally popular. With their marked distinct identify, your air plant collection will go a notch higher with these around.

My dogs LOVE these toys!
Size: Small, Color: Assorted Color
These toys squeak loudly and my dogs all love them! My small dogs can eventually get the squeaker out but still carry them around and want us to throw them. They are something I keep on hand (with a supply of new ones available) to entertain them! They are not expensive and will always be their favorites.

Still going strong
Size: Small, Color: Assorted Color
My dogs chew apart EVERYTHING, but all six of these are still in great shape. They prefer and fight over the purple one though for unknown reasons. 🤣

Loud
Size: Small, Color: Assorted Color
I have mixed feelings about this product. I bought this because my puppy kept breaking the squeaker in his squeaker toys. I wanted something where is the squeaker was more durable. This was definitely more durable, it was also 10 times louder than the squeaker in his squeaker toys. He would squeak it all day and night and I could barely hear anything over it. If you asked my puppy to give the review, I’m sure he’d give it five stars and a glowing review, but for me, it was too loud of a squeaker.
