Add a whimsical twist to your plant collection with the Tillandsia streptophylla, affectionately known as the Shirley Temple Air Plant. This unique air plant stands out with its thick, curly leaves that twist and spiral like ringlets—becoming tighter in dry conditions and relaxing in humidity. Native to Central America and the Caribbean, it's both low-maintenance and full of personality.
Fun Fact: The Tillandsia streptophylla is often nicknamed the “Shirley Temple” air plant because of its adorably curly leaves, which resemble the iconic ringlet curls worn by child actress Shirley Temple in the 1930s.
When the plant is dry, its thick leaves twist and spiral tightly, just like those bouncy curls. In higher humidity, the curls relax and the leaves may stretch out a bit—but the charming, curly look is what gives this air plant its celebrity-inspired nickname.
This slow-growing beauty forms a bulbous base and eventually produces a stunning pink or purple bloom spike as it matures. After flowering, it creates baby “pups” that you can grow into a whole new generation of curly wonders.
No soil needed—just bright, indirect light, fresh airflow, and a gentle misting 2–3 times a week especially by the root area. It’s the perfect choice for mounting on driftwood, hanging in glass orbs, or displaying in creative holders.

💧 Mist 2–3x a week, soak every 2 weeks if needed
