tillandsia terrarium

New terrarium in the house! I just got the tillandsias I ordered and I thought they would look great in a terrarium. Tillandsias (a.k.a. air plants) are often epiphytic, which means they grow on other plants (without harming them!). The funny thing about them is that they do not need soil to grow because they absorb nutrients from their leaves. I hope the little piece of reindeer moss I included makes it, because I hear it's very sensitive!
