When you say the word “plant,” what comes to mind? Green leaves, a pot or other container, and soil, right? After all, a plant needs soil to grow, doesn’t it? That’s where one genus of plant proves us all wrong. Tillandsia - most commonly known as air plant - is a genus of approximately 650 species that can grow without soil.

When many people think of plants, the first thing to come to mind is the color green. After all, a large number of plants have green leaves, green stems, green everything.

Flowering or not, you can find succulent plants in an assortment of colors, including green, blue, red, purple, and yellow.
