“In this beautiful book, artist Zenaida Sengo has provided inspiration for designing and living with tillandsias.” —Flora Grubb

Air Plants shows how simple and rewarding it is to grow, craft, and design with these modern, easy-to grow houseplants. Stunning photographs showcase creative ideas for using tillandsias mounted on walls and suspended from the ceiling. You’ll learn how to use the plants in living hair accessories and jewelry and in unique containers, like dishware, leather bowls, and baskets. Six step-by-step projects include a wood mount, a wall hook, lasso-and-hook wiring, a ceramic-frame garden, and three unique terrariums.

Should be called “Decorating With Air Plants”

This book does contain a whole slew of very nice pictures. Unfortunately it is very lite on information about the care and propagation of air plants. The main focus of this book is displaying and decorating with air plants. The author is obviously very artistic and does show you some very pretty examples of her decorating style. But i don’t care in the least about how air plants look next to her favorite mineral samples.!? 2/3 of book is nothing but decorating ideas and the other 1/3 is mostly photos of airplants, though they are very nice photos. VERY LITTLE actual information about raising air plants.

Beautiful images, minimal information

After doing as much research as possible on the web (very little available by the way) I decided to order this book to get some more meaningful information. Unfortunately, the book offers the exact same information I was finding on the tillandsia websites, which just wasn't enough. I will have to learn through trial and error I suppose. I gave it three stars because it is full of beautiful pictures that grabbed by attention for a couple of hours.

An Inspiring Air Plant Guide!

I've grown air plants for years with differing results (some thrive, some die). Growing information for tillandsias has been difficult to find and is often overly vague and broad. This book provides great information on the different types of air plants and super useful guidelines for watering and fertilizing. On top of all that, the photos throughout the book are beautiful! This book gave me all sorts of new ideas for displaying my tillandsias.

A Great Introductory Guide To The World Of Tillandsias

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.

A great book!

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.

Best Book on 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!

Very satisfied with this book!!

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.”

Learned a lot

I am new to the world of tillandsias and personally enjoyed the book. I am not one who like to read and I get bored really easy. This book has wonderful pictures throughout and informative. I now know what a tilli looks like, from the picture, when it's dry and needs water. I knew the leaves would curl but some just have a curl to them. Also knowing which environments the species originate from is helpful with watering. I thought they all liked a good soaking at least one a week but apparently not. I've learned a few important things from this book and recommend it.

Useful reference

I found this to be quite informative when I decided to try my hand at keeping plants alive again. I do not at all have a green thumb so I wanted to try air plants which require very little fuss to maintain. I often do pick this up as reference whenever I'm not sure about my plants. Using this as a guide, I've kept my plants alive for 3 months so far.

Great for a beginner

Beautifully photographed. Clear and thorough instructions on how to care for air plants. I'm new to this fad but have to admit I'm enjoying caring for these little things. I have the opposite of a green thumb so the fact that I've been able to keep them alive for over a month is a good sign. I've gotten several ideas from this book, and learned that I can use pretty much anything to display them. I always thought I need to buy a terrarium bowl but that's not the case. It's inspired me to use small Japanese bowls I like to collect, as well as jam jars that I used to throw away. Lots of helpful tips in this book.

Great info on Tillandsia (Air Plants)

Covers a variety of information about Tillandsia. Good info about light requirements, watering. How to tell a Xeric from a Mesic type and how to care for them. Lots of great ideas to bring them into your home. How to use them as design elements in your home. Displays that let you enjoy their company for awhile then return to a location with better light.

I should have acquired this book 3 years ago!

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.

The go-to book on air 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.

Excellent book

This book is fantastic and gave me all I needed to know (and more) about how to care for and display my various air plants. For the first time I'm confident I'm not going to kill the poor things dead due to over (or under) watering. I keep my air plants in my bathroom, water them once a week in the leftover bathwater (along with my orchid collection) and have fun arranging them in different shapes. One of the plants is doing so well that it will be blooming soon. I can't wait!

A Collector's Item for Every Tillandsia Lover

It comes with tons of vibrant photo and information about tillandsia. If you're looking for a book to immerse yourself into the curious world of magical plants, this is the right one.

Perfect book for air plant lovers

This is a concise book with everything you need to know about growing air plants. I learned a lot from this book and I thought I already had it figured out. It only took an hour for me to read. Love it!

Outstanding Tilly Book

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.

A new passion.

Saw air plants at my local nursery earlier this year. While visiting family I’m SF I stopped by the nursery mentioned in the book. Great experience. I bought two plants, brought them back to Seattle on the plane - no problem carrying them on board in a paper bag - and am very happy with these fascinating little gems. I’ll be adding a few more to my windowsill. Excellent book for tillandsia enthusiasts!

Lots of info on air plants

Great seller; book was in excellent condition. Highly recommend this seller and this book for people looking for good information, and easy to understand on air plants.

Not much help in keeping tillensias is alive

Nice pictures but short on info. More of a decorating suggestion book then a plant book. No information on identification or growing plants.

Awesome book

What a great book for Tilly's! Covers everything a beginner like me needs to know! Beautiful photos and easy to follow and learn! Definitely recommend this wonderful book!

Remember they need moisture just not much

This is the best book I have read about care and feeding of these kinds of plants. I found it most interesting and an explanation about why former attempts were not successful.

A WONDERFUL BOOK ABOUT AIR PLANTS

I got approximately 25 Air Plants about a year ago. This is not only an informative book it is a Beautiful book. It's a pleasure just turning the pages. Tons of tips and tricks.

The Love of Air Plants

This book was a great help for Tillandsia fans. It was very easy reading with lots of lovely photos, identification of various species, and showing how to use Tillandsias in various ways. It will excite your desire to get started. Becoming a member of a Bromeliad Society close to you would also help accumulate more plants and learn how to care for them. Florida has many of them.

A MUST READ!!

Great book! Arrived quickly. I was worried that it would not really teach me anything i hadnt already learned online... It exceeded my expectations by far!!! It expanded what i already knew and taught me so much about care techniques. And how to read each of my plants and understand what they are needing. As well as what their natural growing conditions are to help me know where my plants will thrive at in my home. A must read for any air plant lover!!!

A Must for Air Plant Owners!

I love this book and refer to it often. I've been acquiring Air Plants (Tillandsias) for several months now and have fallen in love with them. This book covers the basics for their care, and also has some wonderful ideas about displaying them and incorporating them into your life. The photographs are gorgeous too. I bought the Kindle version of this book and the photos look great on my Kindle Fire. If you're just getting started with Air Plants I highly recommend this book - you will learn a lot!

Very Informative Book

This book is very detailed. It’s helped to to grow some beautiful airplants. I love it when they bloom!

My Mom loves this book

My mother bought a air plant locally, I got her this book to learn to care for it. She spent the whole morning reading this book. She says she loves the pictures and it is easy to read and understand. She cant wait to get more air plants and she wants to decorate the plates and bowls as she has seen in the pictures in this book. My mom is 76 and is in LOVE WITH THIS BOOK! She wants me to buy one for myself and for me to try and grow air plants.

Book for the airplant lover in your life

I bought this book for my dad and he loves it. He has about 20 air plants, and this gave him some new ideas on how to display them.

Worth the money and time to read! Great book!

Excellent book, with big glossy pics, and information regarding those pictures so you know what you are looking at! Very well written, a book that actually has some weight and volume to it. A wonderful addition to ones coffee table, or book shelves. Well worth the money spent!

First the photography is beautiful, but kept clean and simple

First the photography is beautiful, but kept clean and simple. The book is extremely informative on the subject of airplants....covering their variety, care and how to display them in your home or office. My favorite section was the decor information. She is very creative and generous with her ideas on how to showcase these funny little plants. Whether you are new to airplants or not, this book is a must have. It gathers everything you ever wanted to know about them!

Beautifully made and well written!

This book is beautiful, first of all! I consider myself pretty well versed in how to take care of most airplants but this book definitely already has taught me some things I didn't know! I suggest this for anyone who is a serious terrarium maker/ collector and an air plant lover, like myself!

Can't put this book down.

If you are interested in learning about air plants and love illustrations, then this is a MUST for your library. I thorougly love this book so much that I keep it in my purse to read while I am waiting or sitting somewhere. This is one book that I find myself carrying wherever I go. It is the perfect size book for a medium sized purse. The photos are beautiful and inspires creativity. I've found bowls around the house that compliment my tillandsia. I've been motivated to use what I have instead of going out and buying more. Simplicity in some of the photos bring a sense of zen to the imagination.

Title: Air Plants - The Curious World of Tillandsias Author: Zenaida Sengo Published: 10-21-14 Publisher: Timber Press Pages: 224 Genre: Home & Garden Sub Genre: Crafts & Hobbies; House Plants; Landscaping ISBN: 9781604694895 ASIN: B00PD5BNO4 Reviewer: DelAnne Reviewed For: NetGalley My Rating: 5 Stars . As I grow older my thumb is not quite as black as it once was. If fact it is on the lighter side of grayish-green these days. At one time the only things guaranteed to grow in my home were cactus, violets and air plants. Luckily they come in a variety of colors and species so I always had a riot of color in my home. It was a hard won battle which thanks to the advice of my local florist I won. These beautiful and lovely plants are shown in some absolutely beautiful photographs. There are easy to understand instructions on how to care for these exotic plants. How to care for them if they become infected with either a blight of some kind or insect infestation. An important book for your gardening shelf or if you like looking at colorful pictures that will stimulate the eyes and your desire to own more of these versatile plants.
