Aπ±πΆ SURPRISE! YOUR AIR PLANT HAD A BABY! π₯Ήπ
Swipe through to meet these adorable little plant parents and their tiny plant babies! πͺ΄β¨
Did you know air plants can reproduce by growing βpupsβ?! π±
Here are 3 fun facts about these little cuties:
π 1. Babies have a name! New air plant growths are called pups, and they grow from the mother plant, usually around the base.
πΏ 2. No rush to separate them! Let the pups grow until theyβre about 1/3 to 1/2 the size of the mother plant before separating them. You can also leave them attached to create a cute little clump!
π 3. Mom gives it her all! Many air plants produce pups after flowering. The mother plant may eventually decline after flowering and producing offsets, but her little plant family can keep growing!
And the best part? Every pup is a whole new air plant to love. π₯Ήπ±
Which one is your favorite? 1, 2, or 3? Tell us in the comments! π
