Good morning! I’m new and have been watching and learning and loving all of your collections you post! I have a few questions and wanted to see if you could help me get started! I’m not new to plants and have many! I live in Ga so our weather is mild for the most part! We stay warm and humid and have mild winters. (for the most part) I’m interested in getting some air plants and just have some questions regarding them!
1. Can they go in any wood or is there a particular kind I need to be looking for? I’ll include pictures of set ups I love the look of. The reason I ask is because my husband is a wood worker and can basically build whatever I want if I show him a picture or he knows what kind of wood is needed for that project.
2. I have a sunroom all my plants stay in once our nights are colder then 50s. I know air plants like lots of indirect sunlight which I have. But I was wondering once it warms up can they got outside to enjoy the humid air and sunshine. With a full wrap around porch and large trees we have tons of indirect sunlight!
3. Are there particular kinds of air plants I should look for to purchase? Again I’m not new to plants but I have 3 boys and I need something that’s going to thrive in chaos! I do not need a drama queen! 🤣
4. Do you purchase online or would I look locally in my area? Again I’m new to all things air plants but if I’ve learned anything with plant buying supporting local nurseries and small businesses online has produced the best adult plants and no extra pests.
5. Anything else I should know before starting this adventure? Do I jump in buy several or just dip my toe in and get one? Again I love to collect and definitely love to see all the collections posted here!
Thank you for all your help and advice! I’m going to add some pictures of set ups I’ve seen and loved!
