TILLANDSIA RECURVATA – The Nomad's Orb
Live Air Plant – Epiphytic Ball Moss Specimen
 
Call it Tillandsia recurvata, Ball Moss, or the quiet hitchhiker of the southern trees — this hardy air plant lives life unattached. It finds its perch on branches, fences, and phone wires, drawing all it needs from the wind.
 
Collected from the Florida canopy with restraint and respect, each Nomad's Orb varies in size, with most fitting comfortably in the palm. These are live, untreated specimens — wild but healthy — pulled only from areas of natural detachment or where propagation encourages biodiversity.
 
This plant asks little: indirect light, a light misting now and then, and freedom from soil or pot. It thrives as it is — suspended and self-sufficient.
 
A living relic for those who understand resilience.
