    This is a delightful small airplant which produces little pale purple flowers. A little plant to be recommended.

    excellent airplant for the beginner or established keeper easily clumping

  3. Pauline Pedley (verified owner)

    I received a quite thick clump of this plant, which arrived totally healthy (never had a problem with any plant from Craftyplants, and I’ve had a lot). Excellent packaging to ensure you receive an undamaged plant. Thanks again Alex and Graham for yet another plant to add to my miniature collection! xx
