In this piece, three air plants are combined with wood to create a one-of-a-kind display. These are indoor plants on a piece of real wood. The wood piece is about 12" long. Price is $30.
Air plants are ideal for anyone who enjoys plants but doesn't have a green thumb. They only need to be soaked in water every week to ten days. The plants, which are not permanently attached to the wood piece and not planted in soil, can be lifted off and can be easily replaced if needed.
