They can hang upside down, so you can incorporate them into a shell. You can also stick\/glue air plants onto a piece of wood or tree stump. The glue we use for air plants is an acid-free and waterproof glue.

And of course don't forget to water them regularly with a plant sprayer. You can also give air plants a dip.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Air plants, what kind of plants are they?
