Air Plant Love



I can't seem to get enough of air plants lately. I see them popping up everywhere. These little gems are from Flora Grubb Gardens. Tiny mosses, lichen, and Tillandsia growing happily in darling cube terrariums. The photos are from Flora Grubb's brother's wedding (Jonathan Grubb & Kestrin Pantera) that their floral designer Suzie arranged for the special occasion. A wedding that was the talk of the internet recently; where we found out even the bride's bouquet and their wedding cake was adorned with the plant. According to the NY Times, the bride, Kestrin hates to "kill" flowers so she chose a bouquet of tillandsia, because it feeds off air. So sweet don't you think? If you by any chance didn't hear about it ; there are some beautiful photo's from their photographer, Feather Love here; a link to their most awesome vows here and here and a feature at Style Me Pretty here.

Aren't these just magical? Makes me want to throw a garden party. And get a garden for the party-throwing.

I LOVE these, and pretty much any little collection of plants in clear vases/terrariums like this. Unfortunately, when I look at this I know that they would be covered in dust in less than a week, and would look awful. :(

Maybe someday I'll live in a building that actually keeps dust out, rather than sucking it in!

Neat! I love air plants. I remember having them when I was a kid.

Very curious how they got the plants through the little tiny holes in the vases?
