Air Plants: The Curious World of Tillandsias

Very informative book, the best I've seen dealing with tillandsias. Aside from the clear and thorough cultivation information, the author provides an abundance of high-quality photos and suggestions of how to display these plants with no roots and pots. Clearly, the author has fun displaying her collection creatively, and changing the displays on a whim (which means she gets to play with and really enjoy her plants - the ultimate in plantsmanship!) - and she shares a bookful of uncomplicated, reproducible ideas with the reader. No matter where you fall on the plant-owning spectrum, you'll probably find something to enjoy in this book. If you don't own tillandsias when you open the book, you'll be eager to acquire some by the time you close it!

I wanted to learn more about Tillandsias. This book provides a general guide to the growing and caring of these exotic plants. It addition, information regarding the prevention and treatment of diseases and pest most problematic to Tillandsias is provided. The book is full of pictures. Instructions and guides are accompanied by pictures exhibiting the information ensuring the information provided is clearly understood. It provides a brief guide to some of the many different varieties that exist. The ladder half of the book is filled with even more pictures, numerous ideas, designs and instructions on the many, many ways of mounting and displaying these beautiful, exotic treasures.

This is a great book! I'm a beginner but it certainly answered all my questions. Yes, there were a lot of decorating ideas but it also answered all my questions about care and identified all the ones I've ever seen. Pictures are great and there are lots of details about watering, light, growth, fertilization etc. Maybe an expert would need more information but it certainly is a great book for beginners like me.

This is a very pretty coffee table book. It has some good information in it, but the majority of the book is more of a design book for displaying tillandsias. I was hoping for some more info about care and the different varieties of airplant. I ended up finding one called Living With Air Plants that was more of the A to Z that I was looking for. So, together, these two books make a good pair for me.

This is a fantastic book for the beginner in the world of Tillandsias. It is very easy to read and is packed with good information on everything from the care and feeding of your Tilly to great ideas, with instructions, for displaying them. The pictures are dynamite and very helpful. I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to get a good start with these great little plants.

Not just a reference and care book for air plants, it is stuffed with great photos of different varieties so you can identify what kind of air plant you bought. All the details needed for care and maintenance of Tillandsia species. And full of suggestions for display of the different varieties.

I've been keeping Tillandsias for about 3 years now and my collection has really grown - possibly faster than my knowledge of these plants has expanded. I almost blindly ordered this book to help bring my knowledge level up. As it turns out, this book does contain a great deal of information about Tillandsia, but even moreso, this book contains a wealth of information regarding methods and ideas for displaying these plants. Well, I needed that information too! The photographs are great (I feel qualified to say that as one of my undergraduate majors was photography), and the information in this book has inspired me to display my Tillandias in many different ways.

I’m ready to explore some more! Book is in three parts. 1. The overview and care. 2. A look at common and easy to find tillandsias. 3. And a third section on crafty ideas. I think the ideas on how to display tillandsias was unexpected (to me) in their “craftiness.” But after the overview and a taste of what’s out there... the chase is on! I’ve started to look for a specific variety and have found this could be a pleasant little “hobby.”

Beautifully presented book and well written, with stunning photos and great information. After researching and reading reviews, I bought several air plant books at the same time, and this one was by far the best of the lot.
